Ingredients

  • enough lettuce leaves for 4 people (use butter lettuce, red- or green-leaf lettuce)
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • about ½ cup sour cream
  • fresh chives, cut fine or finely sliced onions
  • salt
  • pepper

Directions

1

Wash and drain lettuce.

2

Stir other ingredients together and pour over the lettuce.

3

Mix lightly.

4

A sliced hard-boiled egg may be used as a garnish if desired, to be fancy or give it more body.

5

This salad won't keep long.

6

It should be served at once or the lettuce will wilt and be miserable.

7

Don't use the iceberg lettuce in this recipe, if you can help it. Use the kind listed in the ingredients. Only if they aren't available, then you may use the iceberg.
