Step 1
Cut the head of romaine in half lengthwise to create two long halves of lettuce.
Step 2
Slice the core from each half in a triangle shape or by using two angled cuts. Remove and discard the triangle shaped core.
Step 3
Turn the half heart so the cut side is facing down. Slice the lettuce again lengthwise into thirds or quarters.
Step 4
Cut into bite-sized pieces: Keeping the lettuce cut side down, chop the lettuce into bite sized pieces starting from the leafy end towards the core end.
Step 5
Shred into thin ribbons: Keeping the lettuce cut side down, thinly slice the lettuce into thin ribbons or chiffonade pieces starting from the leafy end towards the core end.
Step 6
Transfer the cut lettuce into a salad spinner to wash and thoroughly dry.
