Dressed Lettuce
Ingredients
Directions
Remove leaves from the stalk of the lettuce, discarding wilted outer leaves.
Wash the leaves and keep them in cold water until crisp.
Drain the lettuce and place it on a towel to remove excess water.
Use a bag made from white mosquito netting or a wire basket to hang the lettuce in the lower part of the refrigerator to drain.
Arrange the lettuce for serving in its original shape and serve with French dressing.
