    actually the faster way to it instead of peeling with a knife is simply use a vegetable peeler and peel of slightly the to the celery where the strings are it works as well. ;o)

    James M, you actually don't have to always remove fibers if celery is cut across them thinly, or is intended for rather long cooking. And be cautious about leaves - they can sometimes be on a bitter side, taste them before using.

    I've always removed them since over the years I've had many operations to cut out all but one metre of my intestine (I have a very active and fierce case of Crohns disease) so digestion is so hard. I love fruit and vegetables so I have to remove grape skins, tomato skins etc as best I can as it's so painful.

    It's a fucking THIRTEEN MINUTE video on preparing celery, which is so simple that you could show it in less than one minute. The first time i cooked with celery I did exactly what he does in the video because the "technique" is so obvious. I didn't downvote but this video is unnecessarily long and detailed for such a simple task.

    I just buy a bunch of celery, cut the bottom off the stalks leaving leaves on, wash it real good, and throw it in a juicer with fresh parsley and cilantro leaves for some fresh delicious juice. Sometimes, to make it sweeter, I'll take the celery juice and a cored apple, and blend them together in a single serving blender. It only takes 5 minutes, not 13.5 minutes
