1. In a large bowl, whisk together the anchovies and lemon juice to dissolve the anchovies. Whisk in the salt, and season with pepper. Whisk in the olive oil to make a smooth dressing. (Or process in mini food processor and add to the bowl.)

2. Add the celery root and apple, and toss to coat well in the dressing. Add the arugula and walnut, and toss lightly just to combine. Serve immediately.
