Apple and Celery Salad

Celery was often used as a salad vegetable in the past. In this no-fuss combination, it is paired with apple and then dressed with mayonnaise. Using a simple mayonnaise dressing for finishing everything from salads to cold cooked meats and vegetables was popular in the Edwardian kitchen. This salad is also good with grated raw celery root or with radishes thinly sliced in half-moons in place of the celery.
