Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced into rings
Pinch kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 cup cream cheese, softened
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup blue cheese, preferably Roquefort, crumbled
Dash heavy cream, as needed
Dash Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
Pinch kosher salt
Freshly ground black peppercorns
1/2 cup pistachio nuts
8 celery stalks, leaves attached

Steps:

  • To make the onion spread: Drizzle the vegetable oil into a wide pan over high heat. Once hot, add the onion rings and saute for about 2 to 3 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to low, and cook slowly for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the rings are nice, soft and a medium-golden brown color, pull them off the heat.
  • Season with the kosher salt, black pepper and smoked paprika.
  • Put the softened and malleable cream cheese into a bowl. Incorporate the caramelized onions and stir with a spatula to combine. The heat of the onions will help melt the cheese.
  • The leftovers can be saved, refrigerated, in an airtight container for about a week and used on bread, burgers, or almost anything.
  • To make the blue cheese spread: Place the softened cream cheese into a bowl with the crumbled blue cheese. Using a spatula, mix the cheeses together until they develop a nice and smooth consistency, adding a drizzle of heavy cream if the mixture is too stiff.
  • Season the mixture with the Worcestershire, chives, salt and black pepper.
  • To make the stuffed celery: Place both spreads into 2 separate heavy plastic bags. Cut off the tip of 1 corner from each bag and use them to pipe the spreads onto the celery stalks.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Celery Stalks: Select celery stalks that are firm, crisp, and have a vibrant green color. Avoid stalks that are wilted or have blemishes.
  • Prepare the Celery Stalks: Wash the celery stalks thoroughly and pat them dry. Trim off the ends and cut them into desired lengths, typically around 3-4 inches.
  • Cook the Caramelized Onions: To achieve perfectly caramelized onions, use a combination of butter and olive oil. Cook them slowly over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until they turn a deep golden brown.
  • Make the Cream Cheese Mixture: Use high-quality cream cheese that is at room temperature to ensure a smooth and creamy texture. Mix it with herbs, spices, and seasonings of your choice to create a flavorful filling.
  • Stuff the Celery Stalks: Use a spoon or a piping bag to fill the celery stalks with the cream cheese mixture. Be careful not to overfill them, as the filling may expand during baking.
  • Bake the Stuffed Celery Stalks: Place the stuffed celery stalks in a baking dish and bake them in a preheated oven until the cream cheese mixture is hot and bubbly. The baking time may vary depending on the thickness of the celery stalks.
  • Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle the stuffed celery stalks with additional herbs, spices, or grated cheese. You can also drizzle them with a balsamic glaze or a citrus vinaigrette for an extra layer of flavor.
