the much maligned iceberg

Here's yet another article to share: http://www.saveur.com/article/Our-Favorite-Foods/The-Ice-Queen

I've personally always liked iceberg lettuce. My friend Judy taught me to eat chunks of it to provide a contrasting crisp freshness to the greasy goodness of pizza. I'll admit to loving the wedge salad and while I've bought into the myth that iceberg lettuce is totally nutritionally-deprived, I think I may have to start using it again.

(This is also partially motivated by the fact that I just had some wild field mix that was oddly and unpleasantly grassy tasting. Bleh.)

On another green note, Swiss chard season's here and it is GOOD!

It's so crisp! And some of the stir-fry recipes sound intriguing. I've also been gravitating towards darker greens, but it doesn't mean we can't love iceberg, too! :)
