1 tsp celery seed

Steps:

Tips:

Use fresh celery seeds: Fresh celery seeds have a more intense flavor than ground celery seeds. If you can't find fresh celery seeds, you can use ground celery seeds, but use half the amount.
Toast the celery seeds: Toasting the celery seeds will bring out their flavor. You can toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until they are fragrant.
Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil is the base of the dressing, so it's important to use a good quality oil. Look for an extra virgin olive oil that is fruity and flavorful.
Add a little bit of sweetness: A little bit of sweetness will help to balance out the tartness of the vinegar. You can add honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar to taste.
Season the dressing to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.

Conclusion:

Celery seed salad dressing is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads. It's also a great way to use up fresh celery seeds. The dressing is easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. So next time you're looking for a new salad dressing, give celery seed dressing a try.
