Lettuce

Lettuce is mainly eaten raw in salads, sandwiches and wraps. It is popular for its light taste, crispy texture and versatility as a base for all kinds of cold dishes.

In addition, lettuce is rich in moisture, fiber and vitamins A and K, and contains very few calories. You can recognize fresh lettuce by its firm, crispy leaves with a bright color and no brown edges. It is best to store lettuce in the refrigerator in a sealed container to maintain its crispiness.
