How much celery seed equals 1 cup celery?

Celery seed often will not work as a substitution for celery stalks and leaves. It will depend on the intended use in a recipe. The seeds will impart some celery flavor but will lack the crisp texture and moisture that the green fleshy parts of celery provide, and the uncooked seeds can be hard between the teeth when bitten.

As a rule of thumb, and in an emergency, you could substitute celery seed in soups, casseroles, or some sauces that are enhanced by the flavor of celery. If that is the case, use of 1 to 2 Tablespoons of seeds (depending on the freshness of the seeds) could provide similar flavor to a cup of chopped celery.

In most recipes where the fresh, moist, and crisp qualities of celery are needed, you might be better off to just leave that ingredient out, and perhaps add 1 to 3 Tablespoons of liquid (such as water, white wine, apple juice, or chicken broth) to the recipe to replace the lost moisture content. Or consider if chopped bell pepper, onion, carrots or other vegetables might work as a substitute instead.
