About Romain hearts
Romaine hearts are the tender, inner leaves of romaine lettuce, prized for their crisp texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor. This leafy green is a staple in many cuisines, particularly Mediterranean and American, often featured in salads like the classic Caesar. Nutritionally, romaine hearts offer a wealth of benefits. They are low in calories and high in essential nutrients such as vitamin A, vitamin K, and folate. These vitamins support eye health, bone strength, and cellular repair. Romaine hearts also contain fiber, aiding digestion, and potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure. They're hydrating, thanks to their high water content, and serve as a healthy, versatile base for meals. On the downside, if consumed with high-calorie dressings or toppings, their health benefits may be diminished. Opt for lighter pairings to keep dishes nutritious and balanced.
