Alton Brown's Parsley Salad

You won't believe how good this simple salad tastes! Alton Brown is the man! Here's his recipe.
Ingredients:
4 oz (about 2 quarts) parsley leaves
2 tbsp fresh lemon zest
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
6 tbsp walnut oil (Adrienne's note: This stuff is expensive, so I just diced and toasted some walnuts and infused some olive oil with them)
2 tsp dark sesame oil
1 tsp honey
salt and pepper to taste
3 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Directions:
Wash and dry the parsley. Pick the leaves and set aside. Discard the stems.
In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, zest, walnut oil, sesame oil, honey, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the parsley and sesame seeds and toss to combine. Allow the salad to sit for at least 30 minutes before serving so that the flavors meld.
