Cut each celery rib crosswise in half. Blanch in saucepan of boiling salted water for 45 seconds; remove with tongs and chill in ice water. Drain and pat dry. Cut into 2-inch (5 cm) long pieces.Add ginger to boiling water; reduce heat to low. Cover and poach chicken until no longer pink inside, about 15 minutes. Remove chicken from water and let cool. Remove skin and bones. (Make-ahead: Wrap and refrigerate celery and chicken separately for up to 6 hours.) Shred chicken.
In bowl, mix mustard powder with 1 tbsp (15 mL) water to make paste; let stand for 10 minutes. Whisk in soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Stir in onions.
Place celery on serving plate; top with chicken. Spoon mustard sauce over top. Garnish with coriander.
