Celery not as a spice, but as a dish

Remove the stem and leaves. Halve the stalks if necessary and blanch in boiling salted water for 10 to 15 minutes, until half-cooked. Meanwhile, grate or finely chop the goat cheese. Brush a baking dish with olive oil. Add the celery stalks. Sprinkle with thyme, black pepper, and goat cheese. Bake at 180°C until the cheese has melted (about 20 minutes). Goes well with duck breast, for example, with some mashed or boiled potatoes and a glass of Pinot Noir. For vegetarians: Also delicious with boiled potatoes.
