Prepare the Romaine Lettuce
Wash the romaine lettuce thoroughly under cold water. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water. Chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large salad bowl.

Slice the Red Onion
Peel the red onion and slice it thinly. If the flavor is too strong, soak the slices in cold water for 10 minutes, then drain before adding to the salad.
