Romaine Salad Recipe with Feta

How do you rinse romaine lettuce?

To rinse romaine lettuce, hold the lettuce under your faucet and rinse with cold water. Separate the leaves to allow the cold water to wash off each nooky and cranny. Blot with a paper towel once finished. Make sure you wash your pre-washed lettuce, too.

How do you chop lettuce?

To chop a bunch of romaine, cut the lettuce head lengthwise to make two halves. Then, cut a triangle at the base of the lettuce leaves to remove the core. Cut the leaves lengthwise again into thirds. Finally, cut the thirds horizontally to make smaller romaine pieces down to the core. Voila!

Do I store the ingredients together or separately?

We recommend storing the raw veggies and dressing separately if you're not serving it right away. Dressings you salad too early can lead to soggy lettuce. Store your salad in a salad container and apply the dressing just before serving.

What should I serve with this salad?

Pair this romaine salad recipe with lamb chops, pita bread or any of these other Mediterranean recipes.
