How to prepare and wash a lettuce (2024)

Preparing salad greens correctly can make all the difference for taking a simple salad to perfection.

Step 1:

Place the lettuce on a clean work surface. Separate the lettuce leaves. Discard any old, wilted or bruised.

Step 2:

Wash the leaves well in the sink or a large bowl of water. Transfer the leaves to a colander and gently shake to remove water.

Step 3:

Place leaves, in a single layer, on a clean, dry tea towel or paper towel and pat dry. Transfer to a salad bowl and use as desired.
