Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat, turning now and then, until crisp, 8-10 min. Drain on paper towels, cool and crumble.

2. 2

   Stir the sugar and pepper into the mayonnaise.

3. 3

   Dry the shredded lettuce well, then spread it in the bottom of a 3 l (3 qt) glass bowl.

4. 4

   Layer the celery, then the onion, then the peas over the lettuce.

5. 5

   Spread the mayonnaise over the peas, all the way to the glass, so it seals the vegetables underneath.

6. 6

   Cover with the cheddar, then the bacon.

7. 7

   Cover and chill for at least 1 h, or overnight.

8. 8

   Serve with a large spoon that reaches the bottom, so each portion has every layer.
