Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 ounces slab bacon into 1"-thick pieces
1/2 finely chopped small shallot
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1/2 cup crumbled mild blue cheese
kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper
1 small head of iceberg lettuce
1/4 thinly sliced small red onion

Steps:

  • Cut 4 ounces slab bacon into 1"-thick pieces and cook in a medium skillet over medium-low heat, stirring often, until crisp, 5-7 minutes; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Whisk 1/2 finely chopped small shallot, 3/4 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, and 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar in a small bowl; fold in 1/2 cup crumbled mild blue cheese. Adjust consistency with sour cream or buttermilk, if needed. Season dressing generously with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and more vinegar, if needed. Cut 1 small head of iceberg lettuce into 4 wedges; place on plates and spoon dressing over. Top with bacon, 1/4 thinly sliced small red onion, and more crumbled blue cheese and chopped chives.

This is the best wedge salad I've ever had. The dressing is so creamy and flavorful, and the bacon and blue cheese are the perfect toppings. I will definitely be making this again and again.

This salad was a disaster! The dressing was curdled, the bacon was burnt, and the blue cheese was moldy. I had to throw the whole thing away. I will not be making this recipe again.

This salad was okay. The dressing was a bit bland, and the bacon and blue cheese were not very flavorful. I think I would need to doctor up the dressing and add some more toppings to make this salad more enjoyable.

This salad was a bit too rich for my taste. The dressing is very creamy and heavy, and the bacon and blue cheese are very salty. I think I would prefer a lighter dressing and less bacon and cheese next time.

I'm not a huge fan of blue cheese, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dressing is so creamy and flavorful, and the bacon and tomatoes add a nice touch. I would definitely make this again, but I would probably use a different type of cheese.

I've been making this salad for years, and it's always a hit. The dressing is so simple, but it's so flavorful. I love that you can use any type of lettuce you want, so it's a great way to use up whatever you have on hand.
