[edit] About Romaine Lettuce
Romaine lettuce is a very practical leafy vegetable. This type of lettuce is a good combination of flavor and crunch. Very tolerant of heat, it has a longer shelf life compared to other types of lettuce. The common variety of romaine lettuce, green, is the preferred green for Caesar salad. Red romaine is more tender compared to its green cousin. The milky fluid found in the thick ribs of romaine lettuce gives the fine-bitter herb taste.
