Apple And Celery Salad With Toasted Seeds
- 1/4 cup raw pepitas
- 1/2 teaspoon black mustard seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 1/4 cups cubed apple (sweet, or a mix of tart and sweet)
- 2 stalks celery with leaves, cut into small cubes
- 3/4 cup halved red grapes
- 1 1/4 cups chopped arugula leaves
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
- 2 tablespoons walnut oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- salt
- Toast pepitas in a small dry skillet over medium heat. Shake the pan frequently while cooking to turn the seeds and prevent them from burning. Toast until seeds are spotted with golden-brown patches-this is what gives them flavor and crunch. Remove seeds from skillet and cool slightly.
- Toast mustard seeds and fennel seeds in the same skillet, until they become fragrant and fennel takes on a golden hue-less than one minute. Remove from heat.
- Combine three seeds, apple, celery, grapes, arugula, cilantro, walnut oil and vinegar in a bowl. Toss ingredients together to fully coat. Season with salt to taste and toss again.
