What is a Roman salad?
Roman salad, also known as cos salad, is a type of salad (and vegetables), which is characterized by dark green leaves that grow upright and turn in from lighter colored stems. These leaves are particularly fragile compared to other types of salad and are often damaged during transport, making it the least widely grown type of salad. It also becomes the most nutritious and main choice of salad used in Caesar salads. Other similar varieties include a sweet Roman and milder variety, which is characterized by leaves with a red tip. The inner leaves of the Roman lettuce have a lighter color than the outer leaves, resulting in a lighter taste. Like some others, what salad is also a crispy salad, but the darker green parts of the leaves are softer than the light-colored stems. All these nutrients are essential for food that is considered to be a healthy heart and can be an important part of every daily diet. Not only that, but the Roman salad is also listed as a meal that fights the Cancer of the American InstitUtem for cancer research.
When buying a Roman lettuce, one was supposed to try to avoid their heads with "rust" stains and vigorous leaves, as well as older plants with disintegration and browning. Also, keep in mind that the package of pre -excreted Roman salad will usually not take as long as the whole head, even if the package is well sealed. Ideally, Romain's salad should be stored between 33 and 35 degrees Fahrenheit.
