Iceberg Lettuce Garnish

1. 1

   Line a bowl with paper towels and have ready.

2. 2

   Remove the outer leaves of the lettuce.

3. 3

   Cut a V-shaped wedge around the inner core and remove the core and discard.

4. 4

   Halve the lettuce to make 2 quarter sections.

5. 5

   With a large, sharp knife, slice each section crosswise into a very, very thin julienne or julienne with a hand-held Japanese mandoline.

6. 6

   Transfer the julienned lettuce to the paper towellined bowl to absorb any excess water exuded by the lettuce when sliced.

7. 7

   Discard the paper towels, and in the same bowl, toss the lettuce with salsa and use immediately, or the lettuce will wilt.
