Baby Butter Lettuce, a tender variety of lettuce, is prized for its soft, velvety leaves and mild, slightly sweet flavor. Originating from European cuisine, it has become a staple in salads and wraps worldwide due to its delicate texture and vibrant green hue. Nutritionally, it's rich in vitamins A and K, which support eye health and blood clotting, and offers a moderate dose of folate, crucial for cell growth. Its low calorie and carbohydrate content make it a popular choice for light, fresh meals. Baby Butter Lettuce is also hydrating, as it contains a high water content, but offers limited amounts of fiber compared to heavier greens. With virtually no fat and minimal sodium, it’s ideal for heart-healthy diets. While its delicate leaves bruise easily, they pair perfectly with light dressings and toppings, adding a gentle yet nutritious touch to any meal.
