What did the salad say to the… oh never mind… let’s save that joke for the next time you hang out with a four year old.
What you do need to know, is how to store your lettuce and not waste a bit of goodness.
The hardier sorts of leafy greens, like Romaine, have greater tolerance for sitting in the fridge. Leaf lettuce, like our friend Red, will not last quite as long. Wash and dry both of these, wrap in some paper towels and store inside a plastic bag in the crisper drawer of your fridge.
Our other favorite, Arugula, is fast company and requires (well, prefers) slightly different treatment. Use it ASAP, but if you need to store it, wrap the roots in a damp paper towel and store in a plastic bag. Of all our featured leafy greens, Arugula needs to be enjoyed first.
Salad time is just around the corner, so lettuce be ready!
