This version came straight from Pennsylvania Dutch country and as far as I know has remained, unchanged for generations. I have never thrown out one morsel of this salad. Ingredients:
4 slices bacon, diced |
3 tablespoons cider vinegar |
3 tablespoons sugar |
salt and pepper to taste |
1 cup water |
1 medium head leaf or iceburg lettuce, room temperature |
Directions:
1. Fry bacon and drain, reserving bacon fat. (Its quick to just slice some hunks of bacon off the end of the package, then it's already diced.)
2. Add water, sugar, salt and pepper to drippings and bring to a boil.
3. Add vinegar (to taste!) and cool mixture slightly.
4. When ready to serve, pour hot dressing over the lettuce leaves that have been torn into bite sized pieces.
5. Sprinkle with bacon and toss. (Just be sure that lettuce isn't cold!)
