Every year about this time , I get really athirst for some fresh Buttercrunch lettuce . It ’s a well affair lettuce is ready now !
Fresh frosty Buttercrunch Lettuce is my favorite variety of lettuce to plant and wipe out . It has a sweet taste that goes keen with anything you use up it with or put it on . Plus , it concede a beautiful shining green color and it unremarkably regrowsbackafter the first cutting so you’re able to eat it longer .
I planted this lettuce the workweek after St. Patrick ’s Day , so about the midriff of March . It has had around 50 day to grow and maturate into beautiful bright light-green and nippy lettuce . It ’s amazing what such a small seed can produce when growing seasons are just correct .
Since it has been nerveless and showery this outpouring , the lettuce has flourished as well as some of my other spring crops : radishes , Solanum tuberosum , onion , and prickly-seeded spinach . Today , I am cutting lettuce to make luscious wilted wampum for supper .
harvest home saucy crisp Buttercrunch sugar is as easy as it is to develop fresh frizzy Buttercrunch lettuce . And the result are strictly delectable !
Harvesting fresh, crisp, Buttercrunch lettuce is the easy part.
First , you take to collect a pair of sharp kitchen scissors and a large roll .
Nextgrab a straw of the lettuce and your scissor grip . I like to tailor the entire stalk about an inch from the ground to stimulate regrowth .
The best affair about this dough is the second and third cutting ! Almost as delicious as the first !
When the lettuce is in your arena , you are quick to take it inside and get to washing ! This job is a number more hard than simply cutting . It does become tedious attempt to pick every little flake of dirt off a lettuce leafage .
Washing fresh crisp Buttercrunch lettuce is a whole plenty soft with a full salad spinner . I usually gargle the lettuce once with the strainer insert and thenspinthe dough three times , drain the water each time .
saucy crisp Buttercrunch lettuce is the healthy and crunchy delicious Spring tradition we keep turning to year after year . It is so easy to grow and even wanton to reap .
