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.
