Romain Lettuce Head

Famously featured in Caesar salad, romaine lettuce has a sweet, gentle flavor and a crisp bite that stands up well to punchy flavors. The hearts (the interior, lighter colored leaves) are especially crunchy and refreshing and will stay crisp even with a warm dressing, making romaine a good choice for main-course salads. With the roots in-tact, treat the live head of lettuce like you would a flower by placing it in room temperature water and storing it upright in a cool spot. Peel off your desired leafs and enjoy!
