Рецепт Wilted Lettuce Salad
I've often heard of and enjoyed wilted spinach salads, where the greens are almost cooked by a hot bacon dressing. Only once do I remember someone mentioning a wilted lettuce salad. I think it was one of the dispatchers when I worked for a charter airline. He said it was something his mother used to make - part of their German heritage.
We had a lot of lettuce in the fridge and I thought I would try this out, using the hot bacon dressing from my spinach salad recipe . Everything tastes better with bacon, right?
