About Mache lettuce
Mache lettuce, also known as lamb's lettuce or corn salad, is a delicate leafy green native to Europe and prized for its mild, nutty flavor and tender texture. It is commonly used in French cuisine and pairs well with vinaigrettes, fruits, and nuts. Nutritionally, mache is a powerhouse, offering significant amounts of vitamin C, vitamin A, folate, and iron. It is also rich in antioxidants, supporting immune health and reducing inflammation. With a high fiber content, mache promotes healthy digestion and helps maintain a feeling of fullness. Unlike some lettuces, mache is low in oxalates, making its nutrients more readily absorbed by the body. Its low calorie count and fat-free profile make it ideal for weight management. However, care should be taken to store and wash mache properly, as its delicate leaves can wilt or harbor contaminants if not handled correctly.
