According to the 1997 edition of the Joy of Cooking, the original Waldorf salad, invented in the 1890s by a chef at the Walforf-Astoria Hotel in New York, contained only equal parts of chopped celery and apples, dressed with mayonnaise. Later, walnuts and seeded grape halves were added later.
WALDORF SALAD

1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Allergy information: Mayonnaise contains eggs. Nuts can be a serious problem for some people.
