1. Prepare the Celery
Prepare the celery by slicing it on an angle into ¼-inch-thick pieces, and place these slices into a bowl of ice water for about 20 minutes.
2. Drain and Dry Celery
Once the celery has soaked, drain it well and pat dry with paper towels to remove any excess water.
3. Combine Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the sliced celery, reserved celery leaves, roughly chopped Medjool dates, toasted almonds, lemon juice, and dried chile flakes. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
4. Add Cheese and Oil
Add the shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and drizzle in about ¼ cup of extra-virgin olive oil. Toss everything together gently to ensure the ingredients are evenly coated and the flavors are well-distributed.
5. Adjust Seasoning and Serve
Taste your salad and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add a touch more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to achieve a delightful balance of salty, tart, and sweet flavors. Serve the salad cool.
