Leafy Mix
Leafy Mix as an eye-pleasing salad.
Leaf Lettuce
If you're determined to eat the rainbow (and impress your nutritionist!), be on the lookout for loose leaf lettuces. These lettuces grow large heads that contain loose leaves, and there are reddish-purple and green varieties, both of which make for a great salad (or add great crunch and color to a sandwich) and offer many nutritional and culinary qualities. The red/purple-hued lettuces are rich in antioxidants, offering extra health benefits to those who consume them. While the red leaf lettuce tends to have a more robust, earthy flavor, the green variety is on the milder side. Both offer a nice crunch but are still somewhat soft in texture. When shopping, look for closely-bunched heads with crisp leaves and no brown edges. After washing and drying, you can store the lettuce in the fridge for up to a week in a plastic bag. Note that red leaf lettuces tend to have a slightly shorter shelf life than green leaf or head lettuce varieties, so eat those first. Mix red leaf lettuce with other, milder or bitter lettuces to make a stunning, colorful salad with complex, balanced flavor and diverse textures.
Butter Crunch
Butter Crunch for optimum health.
Butter Crunch
Softer, tender, and less crisp than other lettuce varieties, butterhead lettuces are also known as bibb or Boston. In stores, they are often sold in plastic containers to help protect the delicate leaves. Unlike romaine and iceberg that have relatively tight and rigid leaves surrounding a core, butterhead lettuce leaves are looser and smaller. These leaves make for great appetizer-size lettuce wraps (feel free to double layer the lettuce for some extra rigidity, if desired, depending on how heavy your filling is).
Romaine
Romaine at its best.
Romaine
It's most famous as the Caesar salad go-to, but this type of lettuce can do far more than just that. Romaine has sturdy, long leaves that are typically chopped, but they can be left whole and quickly thrown on the grill for a summer-y, smoky spin on the classic salad. Romaine is crispy and has a mild, sweet flavor that doesn't overpower other ingredients in your recipe (which is what makes it such a great vehicle for Caesar dressing). When shopping, you'll want to look for tight bunches that boast fresh-looking leaves.
