Green oak leaf lettuce

Green oak leaf lettuce is a delicate variety with a subtle, mild flavour. Its green leaves are tender and crisp, making it a popular choice for both salads and garnishes. It pairs well with light dressings as well as more savoury toppings.

Smart
tips

Eat raw

Oak leaf lettuce isn’t ideal for cooking. It’s usually eaten raw, but you can briefly mix it with warm ingredients.

Tear lettuce

It’s better to tear lettuce—cutting can cause the leaves to wilt.

Crispy lettuce

If your lettuce looks a bit limp, soak it in ice-cold water—it’ll crisp right up.
