An American culinary icon that's been around for more than a hundred years, the Waldorf salad is easy to prepare but wonderfully satisfying. And while it's hard to beat the classic combination of fresh, crisp apples and celery, juicy grapes, and crunchy walnuts all tossed in a creamy, tangy dressing, our version employs a simple step that sets it apart and makes it even more special.
