Salade Lyonnaise

Salade Lyonnaise, also called Salad Frisée aux Lardons. For complete instructions, see this recipe from
Bon Appetit magazine:https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/frisee-lardon-salad
The recipe explains in detail how to poach the egg to top the lettuce and cooked bacon.
Frisée lettuce: locally grown from Argus farm market.
Bacon sautéed with onions. Wine vinegar is added to the pan and reduced
to make a vinaigrette dressing for the salad. I used locally produced bacon.

Just before serving, you pour the warm vinaigrette mixture over the lettuce to wilt it slightly.

A poached egg garnishes each bowl of salad. This dish is often served in Lyonnaise restaurants
called Bouchons, as well as in Parisian bistros.

  7. I didn't like lardons when we lived in France because they were mostly fat and they were barely cooked. Yours look delicious.
