Categories     Vegetable

Time 25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 bunches green leaf lettuce (or an equal amount of garden lettuce if you should be so lucky!)
1 bunch green onion, tops only, sliced small
1 lb bacon, diced, fried crisp, and drained
1 cup cream or 1 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Cut up lettuce and onion tops, place in a large bowl.
  • Place bacon on top of lettuce.
  • Have all the rest of the ingredients ready, because this goes quickly!
  • Pour out all but 3T. of the bacon grease.
  • Set the skillet on medium heat and add the cream, salt and sugar.
  • From this point you will be whisking constantly.
  • Heat the cream until it begins to steam - don't let it bubble.
  • Add the vinegar slowly, whisking constantly until the mixture begins to steam.
  • Pour the mixture over the lettuce, toss and serve immediatly.
  • Make sure you have some good bread to soak up the leftover juices - trust me, folks will fight for the last drops!
  • Note: All the whisking is to keep the dressing from "breaking", or separating. If it does, no problem. It's not as pretty, but it still tastes fabulous.
