# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It takes less time to make than it does to complain about being hungry.
  • The contrast between cool crunch and smooth richness is oddly satisfying in a way that never gets old.
  • You can dress it up or keep it simple, and either way it feels like a win.
02 -
  • Room temperature peanut butter spreads like a dream, but cold peanut butter straight from the fridge will rip your celery to shreds.
  • If your celery has thick, fibrous strings, peel them off with a vegetable peeler or you'll be picking them out of your teeth for an hour.
03 -
  • Cut the celery pieces on a slight diagonal for a fancier look that takes zero extra effort.
  • If the peanut butter is too thick, stir in a teaspoon of water or honey to loosen it up and make spreading easier.
