FAQs about oakleaf lettuce
When you buy boxes or bags of loose-leaf oakleaf lettuce, it's usually pre-washed and sorted. However, it's best to pick through the lettuce and remove any damaged leaves before storing it in your fridge. You should also give it a good rinse to remove dirt and potentially harmful bacteria.
A small amount of moisture and proper air circulation will keep your oakleaf lettuce fresh and crisp. The easiest way to do this is to line a sturdy plastic or glass container with a few paper towels (the paper towel will absorb any excess moisture), then scatter the lettuce on top. Top with a matching lid and store it in your fridge. Make sure to have some room in the container for the air to circulate, and a durable container with ridged sides to protect the lettuce from being bruised or squished from other items in your fridge.
In general, oakleaf lettuce leaves should be consumed within seven to 10 days. You probably won't have much luck storing this vegetable longer than that. If your lettuce smells bad, feels slimy, or looks bad, compost it or toss it.
Your lettuce will probably have sand, dirt, or little critters hidden in its leaves. Thus, it's important to wash it properly, especially if you want to eat it raw. The first step is to prep your lettuce, whether that means dicing or chopping the leaves into bite-size pieces or removing wilted leaves. Then, fill a large bowl with cold water and submerge the leaves.
Gently agitate the leaves to remove any dirt or debris. The sand and dirt will fall to the bottom while the leaves float on top. Remove the vegetable from the water and then thoroughly and gently spin-dry the lettuce in a salad spinner or pat dry between paper towels.
