About Asparagus lettuce
Asparagus lettuce, also known as stem lettuce or celtuce, is a versatile leafy vegetable with roots in Chinese cuisine. Recognized for its crisp leaves and tender stem, it offers a mild, nutty flavor and a pleasantly crunchy texture. The stem is often peeled and consumed raw, steamed, or stir-fried, while the leaves are used in salads or cooked dishes. Nutritionally, asparagus lettuce is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, which support eye health, immune function, and bone strength. It also provides dietary fiber that aids digestion, along with a moderate amount of potassium for heart health. Low in calories and naturally hydrating, it makes an excellent addition to weight-conscious or balanced diets. However, individuals watching sodium intake should season it carefully when cooking, as paired condiments may contribute additional salt. Popular in Asian-inspired dishes, asparagus lettuce offers a uniquely nutritious and flavorful ingredient for diverse culinary creations.
