These days, when there's a wedge salad on a menu, it tends to be a wedge salad of the maximalist persuasion, loaded up like a plate of disco fries. This wedge is all about restraint. It is a wedge salad reduced to its most essential, fundamental parts. No bells or whistles. If you ask me, what makes a great wedge truly great is the combination of extremely crisp, cold, refreshing iceberg lettuce (a truly superior lettuce) with an overabundance of tangy, creamy dressing. As far as I’m concerned, the rest of it is fun but unnecessary. You’ll double-dress your lettuce, first with fresh lemon juice, kosher salt, and extra-virgin olive oil, and then again with the aforementioned tangy, creamy dressing, to ensure no leaf is left undressed. I will rarely say this, but you should definitely feel free to dress the shit out of this salad. That’s what the wedge is all about.
