Wedge Salads Don't Need Gussying, Just the Proper Assembly.

'It has been a hard year for romaine. A national food-poisoning outbreak tied to the lettuce this winter sickened hundreds of people across 35 states and killed five. The threat has passed, but the sting lingers. Romaine, for many households, is still a tough sell. In mine, commodity iceberg, that old crunchy friend, has lately been in ascendance, and wedge salads have been the order of the day: pale green-white triangles drizzled in pale white-blue dressing, with crumbles of bacon and bright red pops of cherry tomato, and pricks of green chive strewn across the top. The crunch of it, the bright colors, the sweet and salt seem to please the children. Adults, too.'>>>
