Jerusalem Artichoke, Celery, and Pear Salad

This crunchy refreshing salad highlights some of our favorite fall ingredients. The shaved Jerusalem artichokes, which we’d only ever had roasted, are particularly nice.

1. To make the vinaigrette: In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar and lemon juice. Slowly whisk in the oil until fully combined. Season with salt and pepper.

2. To make the salad: Using a mandoline, shave the Jerusalem artichokes directly into the dressing. Quarter, core, and thinly slice the pears, adding them to the dressing as you go. Add the celery and half of the cheese, and toss all the ingredients to combine. Transfer the salad to a serving platter and scatter the hazelnuts and the remaining cheese on top. Garnish with the celery leaves, lemon zest, and flaky salt.
