"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:
Personal Notes:
This is the classic Waldorf Salad recipe. I found in one of my Grandma Minnie's cookbooks.
My own addition is that you can plump raisins. Put in a bowl with water. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Microwave until the water boils. (About 1 minute) Let stand for five minutes until raisins are soft.
