Ingredients
    2 apples, firm sweet eating apples, unpeeled, chopped into bite-size chunks
    2 granny smith apples, ditto
    1/4 cup blue cheese, crumbled
    2 -4 stalks celery, chopped
    1/2 cup golden raisin, seedless
    1 cup walnuts, pref. toasted (see note below)
    3 tablespoons walnut oil
    2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
    2 teaspoons sugar
    1/2 teaspoon salt
Preparation
    First whisk the walnut oil, cider vinegar, sugar and salt in a small bowl until the sugar has dissolved, and set aside at room temperature.
    Prepare salad ingredients, and toss together in a salad bowl.
    Toss with dressing to serve.
    (If it has to stand awhile, cover with platic wrap and refrigerate. For taking on a picnic or to-go, keep in a plastic container with tight-fitting lid).
    *Toasted walnuts: you can use fresh walnuts, but toasting brings out their fragrance. Heat oven to 350 degF/180 degC, spread walnuts on a cookie tin, and bake for 10 minutes.
