ANN J'S POLISH SOUR CREAM LETTUCE
Different and refreshing. If you like cucumbers in sour cream, you'll like this. A vintage recipe made by my little old Polish mother, who received it from an even older Polish lady. I've never seen this recipe anywhere else. I suspect it might have a bit of a German history somewhere. Use these measurements as a guide; this is for a fairly large head of lettuce.

CREAMED LETTUCE
This was my Grandmothers' recipe. We always had it on Sunday with her famous stuffed meatloaf ;) It is especially wonderful as a side dish on a hot summer afternoon. I think this and her butterscotch pie bring back a smile or dozen for me. I hope you enjoy it!!

LETTUCE WITH CREAM DRESSING
"THIS IS one of my mom's original recipes. Though it is very simple to make this dressing, the sweet-sour combination plus the tang of the onion seems to convince people there is some secret ingredient. All my daughters now make this salad as standard fare in their homes."

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use high-quality sour cream and lettuce. Look for sour cream that is thick and creamy, and lettuce that is crisp and fresh.
- If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried dill instead. Use about 1/4 teaspoon of dried dill for every tablespoon of fresh dill.
- You can also add other ingredients to your salad, such as chopped hard-boiled eggs, crumbled bacon, or chopped walnuts.
- Serve your salad immediately after making it. The lettuce will start to wilt if it sits for too long.

This Polish sour cream and lettuce salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a simple and delicious salad, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
