"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Personal Notes:
This has been on our Thanksgiving table for as long as I can remember. Even the years my Grandma couldn't be with us, she would send her cranberry salad. It's one of my very favorites and I can eat it for days after Thanksgiving is over! The recipe seems complicated but it's well worth it!
