Or you can use our technique, which takes less than 3 seconds and is so much fun you might find yourself eating wedge salads for a week.
What you'll need
• A chilled head of iceberg lettuce
• A hard, flat surface
How it works
Holding the head of lettuce in two hands, position it so the core of the lettuce is parallel to the flat surface. Slam it down hard; remove the freed core. Slice and chop however you like.
