Martha Stewart isn’t just an accomplished cook. She’s also famous for her gardening and farming skills, so when it comes to recipes that are bursting with seasonal produce, we know we can always count on her. Spring is one of our favorite times of year for cooking. After a long winter of sweet potato, squash, and kale, it’s time for asparagus, peas, rhubarb, and more of our favorite ingredients. Martha Stewart’s best spring recipes will help you thaw after the cold season, and there’s still plenty of comfort food to be found for those chilly spring nights.

Celery doesn’t get enough love, but once it starts popping up at the farmer’s market, you should grab a bunch to make Martha Stewart’s five-ingredient celery soup. It has a silky texture, a light vegetal flavor, and celebrates celery in a way you probably haven’t tried before.
