4 servings

  • ⅔ cup chopped celery (about 2 long stalks)

Preparation

Chef’s notes

Recipe adapted from Serious Eats.
Change it up:
Instead of dill, I think you could use chopped cilantro and/or parsley, whichever you prefer. For more of a punch, try adding thinly sliced Kalamata olives and/or crumbled feta cheese. You can also serve this salad over fresh greens with extra oil and vinegar, make a wrap out of it with hummus, etc.
