For the dressing

- 57 g or 2 oz mayonnaise
- 15 ml or 1 tbsp buttermilk
- 1½ tsp honey

- 90 ml or 3 oz extra virgin olive oil
For the salad

Instructions
Make the dressing
- In a medium bowl, combine the vinegar and salt. Let the salt dissolve. Add the shallots and let stand about 15 minutes to combine the flavours.
- Add the mayonnaise, buttermilk and honey, whisking to combine. Whisking constantly, add the olive oil and mix until smooth and creamy. Chill for at least an hour. Vinaigrette can be stored, refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Assemble the salad
- Slice the Fuji apple and Granny Smith Apple approximately 1/8″ thick with a sharp knife or mandoline. Combine the apple slices, approximately 1/3 c of the Creamy Apple-Cider Vinaigrette, salt, sugar, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss to combine. Set aside.
- To serve, divide and layer apple slices, frisée, celery and 1/4 c goat cheese on 4 plates—divide remaining 1/4 c goat cheese and walnuts among salads.
- Serve immediately with the remaining 2/3 c of dressing.
- Garnish with parsley and celery leaves, if desired.
