DIRECTIONS Make vinaigrette:
Whisk together vinaigrette ingredients.
Make salad:
Blanch and peel tomatoes . Seed and cut into 1-inch pieces.
Wrap shallots in a kitchen towel, then twist and squeeze to removeas much liquid as possible.
Cook broccoli, cauliflower, celery root, turnips, and haricots verts in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes, then drain well.
Toss warm vegetables with tomatoes, shallots, chives, cilantro, and vinaigrette.
Cooks’ notes:
• Vinaigrette may be made 8 hours ahead and chilled, covered. Bring to room temperature before using.
• Squeezing juice from shallots makes them less sharp.
