Sipping Tips: Fuller bodied than most whites, Chardonnay is supple on the palate, and in this case carries you through the salad course. Rich oakiness enhances the simple freshness of celery root and embraces the smokiness found in the salmon and the tanginess in the Dijon dressing.
Prep Time: 30 minutes, Makes: 2 salads

Homemade Mayonnaise
Makes 1 cup

2 Henry's Large Egg Yolks
3 Tbsp. lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1/4 tsp. sea salt
dash of white pepper
1 c. Henry's Canola Oil

Place yolks, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Whisk in oil, a couple drops at a time, to create an emulsion. After about a third of the oil is incorporated, add the rest in a steady stream, while whisking. Place in a glass jar, cover and refrigerate until needed.

Creamy Dijon Dressing
1 c. homemade mayonnaise
2 tsp. Henry's Dijon Mustard
1 Tbsp. capers, chopped
2 cornichons, finely chopped
juice of one lemon
1 anchovy, finely chopped
1 tsp. white wine vinegar
2 Tbsp. tarragon, chopped, reserve 2 tsp. for garnish
Sea salt and pepper to taste

Combine mayonnaise with mustard, capers, cornichons, lemon juice, anchovies, vinegar and tarragon. Mix thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper.

Salad
1 organic celery root, peeled and thinly sliced
2 oz. Henry's Market Hot Smoked Salmon, sliced

Toss celery root with enough dressing to evenly coat. Portion between two plates and garnish with slices of smoked salmon. Sprinkle with fresh tarragon.
