Pear, Apple and Celery Salad

Directions

1. In a small heavy saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Heat until golden brown, 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add pecans and salt; reduce heat to low. Cook and stir until pecans are browned, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat; transfer to a small bowl to cool completely.
2. Remove leaves from celery; place in a large bowl. Thinly slice ribs; add to leaves. Quarter pears and apples. Cut into 1/4-in.-thick slices. Add to celery. In a small bowl, whisk oil, vinegar, syrup, zest, salt and pepper until combined. Pour over salad; toss to coat. Top with pecans and Parmesan cheese.
