Romaine lettuce

Romaine lettuce, also known as cos lettuce, is a firm and crunchy variety. With its slightly sweet flavour, it’s the perfect base for the classic Caesar salad. Thanks to its sturdy, elongated, dark green leaves, it stays crisp even after mixing with dressing.

tips

Protect the firm ribs

The central ribs can break under pressure or when bent. Handle the heads carefully during packing, transport and presentation.

Check both firmness and leaf colour

Good-quality romaine lettuce has crisp, firm leaves with a fresh green colour. Wilting, yellowing and damaged ribs are important signs of loss of quality.

Growing Method

Our romaine lettuce is grown both outdoors and in greenhouses. Outdoor lettuce grows in open air, while greenhouse lettuce benefits from controlled conditions. These growing methods affect the growth and quality of the lettuce. For example, outdoor lettuce can have more flavour thanks to the natural environment, while greenhouse lettuce is available all year round thanks to the controlled setting.
