Description
Aside from the salad approach, there's so much to do with this large-leafed green. It's a great material to wrap ingredients, like seasoned beef, chicken salad, pulled pork, taco fixings, or even a hamburger. It's also great in sandwiches — stacking them will give a sandwich food a satisfying green crunch without overpowering other ingredients.
Though it doesn't have a buttery flavor, butter lettuce does have a silky-soft texture that feels like it's melting in your mouth. A hint of sweetness prevails too, giving the leaves a mellow floral note that pairs well with ripened cheeses and citrus-tinged meat.
