About Lettuce

Introduction to Lettuce

Spinach is a new face in the vegetable market in recent years. It is also known as oats, and in some places it is called bitter vegetable and cow-li lettuce. It belongs to the category of asparagus, and is a kind of pointed leaf lettuce with tender shoots and leaves as the product. The leaves are long and lanceolate, light green in color, crisp and tender in texture, and taste extremely fresh, fragrant and unique in flavor. The nutritional value of spinach is basically the same as that of lettuce, slightly higher than that of lettuce.

Lettuce cooking instructions

1. Do not stir-fry the lettuce for too long, just cook until it is half cooked, otherwise it will affect the taste and bright color of the dish. 2. Do not add too much seafood soy sauce or light soy sauce, otherwise the dish will lose its light taste. 3. Wash it before eating it raw because it may contain pesticide and fertilizer residues. 4. It is extremely sensitive to ethylene and should be stored away from apples, pears, and bananas to avoid inducing reddish-brown spots. 5. It is mainly eaten raw, and can be mixed with cold dishes or dipped in various seasonings. It can be fried or shabu-shabu when cooked, and it has a unique taste.
