things people ask

• How much does a cup of chopped celery weigh?
  Around 142 g for cup-diced stalks measured spoon-and-level, per the King Arthur ingredient weight chart. Finely diced celery (1/4-inch) packs tighter and can hit 150-160 g per cup, while loosely chopped 1/2-inch pieces sit closer to 130 g. The leafy tops are much lighter — a cup of leaves is only 40-50 g.
• How many stalks of celery make a cup chopped?
  Two medium stalks, the kind you'd pull from a standard supermarket bunch, give you roughly one cup chopped. Large outer stalks can yield a cup on their own; the thin inner ribs near the heart take three or four. If a recipe calls for one cup of mirepoix's celery share, plan on two stalks and dice from there.
• Should I include the leaves when measuring a cup of celery?
  For mirepoix, soffritto, and most stocks, yes — the leaves carry a lot of the celery flavor and chefs often chop them in. For tuna or chicken salad where you want clean crunch, stick to the stalks. If you do include leaves, expect the cup to weigh less than 142 g since leaves are airy and don't pack.
