Butterleaf is a variety of lettuce known for its soft, tender leaves and mild, buttery flavor. Originally cultivated in Europe, it has become a staple in many cuisines, particularly salads, sandwiches, and wraps. Rich in nutrients, Butterleaf provides vitamins A, C, and K, along with folate and small amounts of iron and calcium. It’s low in calories and hydrating due to its high water content, making it a refreshing and wholesome choice for weight management. Its fiber content supports digestion, while antioxidants help combat inflammation. Butterleaf is typically eaten fresh and pairs well with light dressings and other delicate flavors. However, like most lettuces, its nutrient density is lower compared to other leafy greens like kale or spinach. Whether as a base for a colorful salad or a wrap nestled with proteins, Butterleaf delivers subtle flavor and nourishment to any plate.
