Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup good olive oil
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
2 tablespoons minced shallots
1 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/2 teaspoon anchovy paste
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 cups thinly sliced celery hearts, tender leaves included, sliced on an angle (about 12 stalks)
4-ounce chunk aged Parmesan cheese
2/3 cup toasted walnuts, coarsely chopped
Whole flat-leaf parsley leaves

Steps:

  • At least 1 hour before you plan to serve the salad, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, 1/4 cup of lemon juice, the shallots, celery seed, celery salt, anchovy paste, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Place the celery in a mixing bowl and toss it with the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. (Even though these ingredients are in the dressing, believe me?this step makes a difference.) Add enough dressing to moisten well. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the celery to crisp and the flavors to develop.
  • When ready to serve, arrange the celery on a platter, shave the Parmesan onto the celery with a vegetable peeler, then sprinkle with walnuts, parsley leaves, salt, and pepper and serve immediately.

CELERY ROOT-ARUGULA SALAD



Celery Root-Arugula Salad image

I recently discovered celery root, and have cooked it. Then I discovered that it is great in salads as well! The long prep time is due to a 30 minute resting time....not actual work! Using a mandolin is the easiest way to prepare the celery root, although a good sharp knife works as well.

CELERY ROOT SALAD



Celery Root Salad image

This is one of my favorite winter salads. I often make a large bowl and store it in the fridge because the salad keeps well and intensifies in flavor over time. If you like, you can top the salad with chopped parsley.

WILD ARUGULA, CELERY AND APPLE SALAD WITH ANCHOVY DRESSING



Wild Arugula, Celery and Apple Salad With Anchovy Dressing image

The dressing in this salad is inspired by a much more robust dressing in Jennifer McLagan's wonderful new cookbook, "Bitter." I have reduced the anchovies significantly, not because I don't adore anchovies, but to reduce the sodium levels, which would be too high if an entire can were used. The salad presents a delicious play of bitter, pungent, sweet and salty flavors.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, lunch, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 anchovy fillets
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large garlic clove, green germ removed, minced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Freshly ground pepper
4 cups arugula, preferably feathery wild arugula, stemmed
2 cups thinly sliced celery, from the inner stalks of the bunch
2 tablespoons chopped celery leaves
1 tart apple, such as a Pink Lady or Granny Smith, thinly sliced and tossed with 2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Make dressing. Rinse anchovies briefly and chop. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over low heat in a small skillet and add anchovies and garlic. Stir until garlic is fragrant and just beginning to color and anchovies have broken down into smaller bits. Transfer to a mortar and pestle. Use the pestle to grind mixture into a paste. Add lemon juice or vinegar to the still-hot pan and stir to deglaze bottom of pan, then transfer to mortar and pestle. Add mustard. Work together, then slowly add olive oil, one tablespoon at a time, working each tablespoon into anchovy mixture before adding the next. Season to taste with freshly ground pepper.
  • In a salad bowl, toss together arugula, celery and celery leaves, and apple slices. Add dressing, toss until coated, and serve.

Tips for a Perfect Celery Root and Arugula Salad:

- **Choose fresh and crisp celery root**: Look for celery root that is firm and heavy for its size, with no blemishes or bruises. - **Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the celery root**: This will help to create a more delicate and enjoyable texture in the salad. - **Blanch the celery root slices briefly in boiling water**: This will help to remove some of the bitterness and make the celery root more tender. - **Use a variety of greens in your salad**: Arugula, spinach, kale, and watercress are all great options. - **Don't be afraid to add other vegetables to your salad**: Roasted beets, carrots, or fennel would all be delicious additions. - **Make a simple vinaigrette dressing**: A vinaigrette made with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey is a classic choice for this salad. - **Top the salad with crumbled cheese, nuts, or seeds**: This will add extra flavor and texture to the dish.
