Celery powder
Celery powder is a dried, ground concentrate prepared from fresh
food preservative in organic meat products. Several commercial preparations exist, and it can also be made using a food dehydrator. Some celery powders are prepared from celery juice.[1]
Meat curative
Celery powder contains a significant amount of naturally occurring
USDA regulations because the nitrate/nitrite is naturally occurring.[2] USDA regulations do not allow artificially added nitrate or nitrite to be used directly in organic food products.[2] Meats cured with celery powder include hot dogs and bacon.[5][6] Celery powder prepared from celery juice has been shown to have a nitrate content of approximately 2.75%.[1]
