QUESTION: "What's a honeymoon salad?"
ANSWER: "Lettuce alone!"
That's an old Soupy Sales joke.
BUT SERIOUSLY... ICEBERG LETTUCE GETS A BAD RAP.
WHEN HANDLED PROPERLY, IT MAKES THE PERFECT BACKGROUND
FOR STRONG ELEMENTS LIKE BLUE CHEESE, 1000 ISLAND DRESSING,
CANNED OR FRESH ASPARAGUS, CHEESES, ONIONS, ETC.
MAKE SURE YOU PULL OFF THE LIMP OUTER LEAVES,
THEN RINSE OR SOAK IN ICE WATER AND SPIN DRY.
A SALAD SPINNER IS ONE MY FAVORITE KITCHEN TOOLS
BECAUSE CRISP DRY LETTUCE LEAVES MAKE A GREAT SALAD.
