The seeds come from wild celery. The plant is related to supermarket celery but has a stronger flavor so it is mainly used for its seeds only.
The seeds of the dried fruit of the wild plant are available as whole seeds and as ground. Ground celery seeds are easier to use in sauces and smoothies because they dissolve easily in the liquid. However grinding the seeds loses some of their volatile oils and flavor so it is best to buy the seeds whole and grind them just before you need them.
Celery salt is another type of spice that may contain celery seed. It is a mixture of two parts salt and one part celery seed (or ground celery root and leaves).
