How do you pick romaine hearts?
Look for crisp-looking, unwilted leaves that are free of dark spots.
How do you prepare romaine hearts?
As most lettuce, romaine is most often used in salads. Brush the hearts of the romaine with a vinaigrette and grill for a warm salad or side dish.
How do you store romaine hearts?
Romaine should be used as soon as possible as purchased. If it must be stored, remove wilting leaves. Unwashed, it can keep 3 to 4 days at most in a perforated plastic bag in the veggie crisper of your refrigerator.
