Lettuce storage

Hey there!

Wondering if there are any tips out there for lettuce storage. In particular my husband and I frequent farmer's markets throughout the summer and the heads of lettuce (s.a. red leaf) are huge and we'd like to try and keep them fresh for more than a day or two.

  • Hi Mark -

    We've had the best luck by removing the leaves and washing and *thoroughly* drying then wrapping in paper towels and placing in an air-tight zipper lock bag or air-tight plastic container. Just make sure to remove as much air as possible from the bag, if using.

    Good luck!
