Little Gem Lettuce, often regarded as a miniature version of romaine, enchants with its tender, sweet leaves and a satisfying crunch. Its compact heads boast a vibrant green exterior that transitions to a pale, blanched heart. This lettuce variety is appreciated for its versatility and ease of preparation, making it an ideal base for salads, wraps, or as a garnish for a variety of dishes. Little Gem's texture is similar to butter lettuce, with leaves that are perfect for use as cups in appetizers or light, refreshing meals. Whether enjoyed raw or given a quick char on the grill for a smoky twist, Little Gem Lettuce is a delightful ingredient that brings crispness and freshness to any culinary creation.
