Ingredients:
Ingredient Quantity
Celery stalks, chopped 12
Small shallot, thinly sliced 1

Golden raisins 1/2 cup
Olive oil 1/3 cup
Lemon, juiced 1
White wine vinegar 2 tablespoons

Grated Parmesan cheese 2/3 cup
Instructions:
Combine salad ingredients: In a large bowl, add the chopped celery, golden raisins, roughly chopped pecans, and thinly sliced shallot. Toss gently to combine.
Whisk the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, honey, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper until the dressing is well combined and slightly emulsified.

Dress the salad: Pour the prepared dressing over the salad mixture in the large bowl. Toss thoroughly to ensure all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Let the salad rest: Allow the salad to sit at room temperature for at least 20 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Add Parmesan and serve: Right before serving, add the grated Parmesan cheese to the salad. Toss gently once more to distribute the cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy the fresh and vibrant flavors.
