About Butterleaf lettuce
Butterleaf lettuce, also known as butterhead lettuce, is a smooth-textured leafy green celebrated for its mild, slightly sweet flavor and tender leaves. This lettuce variety is thought to have originated in Europe and is a staple in many cuisines, commonly featured in salads, wraps, and sandwiches. Rich in essential vitamins such as A, C, and K, butterleaf lettuce also provides folate and iron, supporting immune health, skin vitality, and bone strength. With a high water content and low calorie count, it's an excellent choice for hydration and weight management. Additionally, its dietary fiber aids digestion and promotes gut health. However, its delicate leaves can spoil quickly, requiring proper storage and handling. Easy to pair with lighter dressings and fresh ingredients, butterleaf lettuce is a versatile, nutritious addition to meals that complements both wholesome and indulgent dishes.
