Grace young's stir-fried iceberg lettuce
A near-instant springy green vegetable before the springy greens. (And, yes, you can cook lettuce -- here's why you should.) Note: You can use this technique on many other vegetables in season, including romaine lettuce, spinach, watercress, baby bok choy, asparagus (fat spears sliced 1/4-inch thick on the bias; pencil spears in 2-inch lengths), snow peas and snap peas. Adapted slightly from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Chinese-Kitchen-Grace-Young/dp/0684847396?tag=food52-20"><strong>The Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen</strong></a> (Simon & Schuster, 1999) and <strong><a href="http://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Stir-Fried-Iceberg-Lettuce">Saveur Magazine</a></strong>
