CLASSIC WILTED LETTUCE SALAD RECIPE: HOW TO MAKE IT



Classic Wilted Lettuce Salad Recipe: How to Make It image

When we were kids, my sister and I would prepare the freshly picked lettuce for this wilted lettuce salad recipe, rinsing it several times and carefully drying it. As we did so, we quibbled about the portions we'd each have. Somehow, it seems she always managed to get more! We still can't get enough of this salad. —Doris Natvig, Jesup, Iowa
