ICEBERG DEAD AHEAD!!
The poor old Iceberg lettuce is a pretty unfashionable leaf these days, but the Americans still have a lot of love for it, particularly when it’s served in big old wedges and drenched in blue cheese dressing. This twist on the American Classic uses a local Californian goat cheese called Humbolt Fog, which is lovely and creamy, and has a blue-ish tang to it. Paired with some applewood smoked bacon candied in maple syrup, and a few thinly sliced red onions, it’s pretty much the perfect starter. It’s pretty easy to throw together too. Lets begin.
Ingredients (serves 4)
1 large iceberg lettuce
200g Humbolt Fog, or your favourite mild blue cheese
300g Buttermilk, or sour cream
Juice of 1/4 – 1/2 of lemon, to taste
1 teaspoon Tabasco
