2
Slice off the root end of the romaine, just enough to free all of the lettuce into individual leaves.
3
Wash the leaves in fresh water. Lettuce can collect soil in its crevices.
4
Dry with clean paper towel.
5
Group the leaves and slice. I like to slice the firmer stem-side portion thinner, widening my slice as I reach the silkier ends of the leaves.
6
If you have a salad spinner, slice the leaves before frying and then spin the chopped lettuce dry. This is quick and saves you some paper towels.
