You need something clean and refreshing in the series of "small plates," like this one and those above, and Reusing’s celery preparation fits the bill perfectly.

Ingredients

2 bunches celery (preferably organic)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon coarse Korean chile flakes
1 tablespoon toasted peanut oil

  1. Step 1

    Remove darker green ribs from outside of celery bunches and reserve for another use. Slice inner pale green ribs (about 16 to 18, including tiny center ones) diagonally 1/2 inch thick (aim for about 7 cups). Toss with kosher salt and let drain in a colander set over a bowl, chilled, at least 1 hour.

    Step 2

    Just before serving, pat celery dry and toss with lemon juice, chile flakes, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Drizzle with peanut oil and season with salt andsanshopepper. Serve chilled, lightly sprinkled withsanshopepper.

厨师的注意:

Salted celery can be chilled in colander up to 1 day.

  • I made it exact to the recipe - I have been trying dozens of different banchan (Korean small dish) recipes over the past month, and this was surprisingly one of my least favorite. I love celery, but this recipe was just a bit bland overall.

  • This celery was cold and crisp--a nice change for salad. I was surprised, actually. Just happened to have only celery in the crisper.
