Hotel Citadel Celery Salad

I recreated this incredibly addictive Celery Salad, inspired by a dish from the Hotel Citadel in Jerusalem. Celery often takes a backseat, but in this salad, it shines. The combination of crisp celery, sunflower seeds, pistachios, almonds, and dried blueberries (or cranberries) creates a satisfyingly fresh and crunchy texture. The tangy lemon honey dressing perfectly complements the salad's flavors.

Caramelized Lemon Leek Couscous Salad

This Caramelized Lemon Leek Couscous Salad is genius. The dressing, infused with the smoky, charred flavor of fried lemon slices, adds a unique depth. The often-overlooked leek is the star of this dish, giving the a mild, onion-like flavor and creamy texture. Sautéing the couscous adds a nutty flavor which takes this dish to the next level.
