Today, I will teach you a few methods, master these small methods, become a veteran, and secretly tell you that this is what someone with decades of experience in selling lettuce told me, it is really a buy and a quasi, and I will not miss the opportunity at all.
Anyone who has eaten lettuce knows that there are many ways to make lettuce, whether it is fried or eaten cold, it tastes crisp and refreshing, it is really fragrant, and it is almost confusing the fragrance. Now is a good time to eat lettuce, large and small supermarkets have sold, in the morning you can still see the shelves are full, and in the afternoon there are only some crooked melons and cracked dates, from which you can see the popularity of lettuce?
So should you buy lettuce coarse or thin?
1. Look at the thickness
It is very important to choose the thickness of the lettuce, it is easy to buy bitter ones if you are not careful, and it is not so crisp and refreshing to eat. When we choose, we should choose a thinner one, about 3 fingers thick, this size of lettuce is just right, and its skin is not too thick, so it is not only delicious but also more cost-effective.
2. Look at the leaves
Personally, I don't like to eat lettuce leaves, but the freshness of lettuce leaves is also an important step when choosing lettuce.
The more tender lettuce leaves will look more green, and the moisture is very sufficient, and it will look more eye-catching, and when you choose, you can generally notice at a glance that the leaves are more tender and green, which is really delicious to eat.
3. Look at the neck
The neck is the connection between the leaves and rhizomes of the lettuce, we have to see if this part is protruding, if it is obviously protruding here, then you must not buy it, because in this case, the lettuce is likely to be hollow inside, and it is not delicious to buy back, not to mention, it is also very wasteful. Normally, this part should be relatively smooth and without traces, and the moisture in such lettuce is also relatively sufficient, and the dishes made will be more delicious.
With these tips in hand, we can be more comfortable when buying lettuce and choose high-quality lettuce. And a high-quality lettuce, whether it is cold salad, stir-fried or boiled soup, can bring us delicious and healthy enjoyment.
