We've updated the classic wedge salad, using homemade blue cheese dressing and flavorful Little Gem lettuce in place of the traditional iceberg.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
4 ounces blue cheese, at room temperature, crumbled and divided
2 heads (about 1 lb.) little gem lettuces*, trimmed and halved, or hearts of romaine
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
pepper
Directions:
1. Mix sour cream, mayonnaise, buttermilk, salt, garlic powder, and 2 tbsp. water in a medium bowl. Stir in half the cheese, mashing with the back of a spoon to smear into dressing. Chill 30 minutes.
2. Set a lettuce half on each plate. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Top with parsley and pepper.
3. *A mini romaine, Little Gem lettuce has sweet, crunchy, and densely packed leaves. Find it at farmers' markets and well-stocked grocery stores.
4. Make ahead: For dressing, up to 3 hours, chilled.
