  Today celery is thought of as a supporting-role
  vegetable, but in the early 1900s, Chef Victor Hirtzler
  of the St. Francis Hotel in San Francisco developed this
  dish, which gave it the spotlight.

  Cleaned, trimmed celery is briefly braised and cooled in
  chicken broth, leaving it cooked through but still
  crisp, with a softened flavor. ItC╟╓s served with a
  thickly emulsified tarragon vinaigrette and a garnish of
  celery leaves. It is an elegant, and unexpected, first
  course.

  Serves 6 to 8
