slow winter salad



feel connection to the season with fresh greens. vacuum sealed bags of greens are no substitute for a fresh head of lettuce.

so, pick, or have delivered to your home, a beautiful head of winter lettuce.

say hello, and how do you do -- it is shortly to be your salad

pull off and compost damaged leaves, feeling free to salvage healthy bits

with EACH large leaf of lettuce, slice vertically through the center of the rib, and tear remains into BITE-size pieces. swirl lettuce in bowl of filtered (always preferred) water. let sit 5 minutes while sediment falls.

place all leaves in a salad spinner (it is time to invest, all, in a salad spinner.. oxo makes one that is flawless). spin dry. twice.

in a clean dry bowl, mix leafs with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sea salt and fresh ground pepper

optional additions to dressing: mustard, soy sauce, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, pomegranate molasses, garlic, other vinegars

garnish or fortify salad with: pumpkin or squash seeds, nuts, pomegranate jewels, raisins

enjoy
