About Laitue

Laitue, known as lettuce in English, is a leafy green vegetable widely recognized for its versatility and nutritional benefits. Originating from the Mediterranean region, laitue has become a staple in global cuisines, particularly in salads, wraps, and sandwiches. It comes in various types, including romaine, iceberg, and butterhead, each offering a distinct texture and flavor. Rich in vitamins A, K, and C, as well as folate and fiber, laitue supports healthy vision, bone strength, and digestion. Its high water content makes it hydrating and low in calories, making it ideal for weight management. However, it offers minimal protein and may not provide substantial energy on its own. Laitue is best enjoyed fresh and can complement a wide range of nutrient-dense ingredients to create balanced meals.
