Lettuce Salad

The egg yolk dressing can be prepared up to 1 day ahead and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The mixture may thicken when chilled; thin with a teaspoon of water or additional vinegar before serving. The sliced egg garnish should be prepared just before serving to prevent discoloration.

Once dressed, the salad should be consumed immediately as the vinegar will wilt the lettuce. Undressed components can be stored separately: the dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, and washed, dried lettuce wrapped in paper towels in a produce bag for up to 2 days.
