Hiroko ListonLettuce Salad With Miso Dressing
In the region in Japan where I grew up, there is a traditional salad dish called ‘Chisha-momi’. ‘Chisha’ is a type of Red Leaf Lettuce and it has a slightly bitter taste. To remove the unpleasant bitterness, leaves are massaged with a small amount of Salt. That process is unnecessary when you use common Leaf Lettuce. The salad is always dressed with Sweet Miso Dressing. Fish or Seafood is often added. Today I added a canned Mackerel, though I wanted to add Smoked Mackerel, that is so hard to find.
