Swear to God, first time I saw your recipe I thought what the hell
is the romaine for, and I tried to picture it grated up in there and I
saw it as a thickener of some sort, a sort of fibrous thread, perhaps
the one most important thread that holds Mona's Salsa Verde together.
Anyway, it makes me feel good to hear now that I was sort of on the
mark with my theory now that you have explained the purpose of the
lettuce leaves.
