Preparing salad greens correctly can make all the difference for taking a simple salad to perfection.
Step 1:
Place the lettuce on a clean work surface. Separate the lettuce leaves. Discard any old, wilted or bruised.
Step 2:
Wash the leaves well in the sink or a large bowl of water. Transfer the leaves to a colander and gently shake to remove water.
Step 3:
Place leaves, in a single layer, on a clean, dry tea towel or paper towel and pat dry. Transfer to a salad bowl and use as desired.
