Many people think that lettuce is lettuce leaves or seedlings before lettuce grows up.
In fact, lettuce and lettuce are both lettuce plants, but lettuce is a long-leaf lettuce with short stems. It mainly eats leaves. Sometimes we can also find the heart of lettuce when we pick vegetables. You can also slice them and fry them together, but they are a bit too small.
The lettuce in the south is slender with thin skin and tender meat, while the lettuce in the north is thick, long, skinned and slightly hard, but they are all stem lettuce. Many people throw away the leaves when eating lettuce. In fact, the young leaves in the middle can also be fried with lettuce. Compared with lettuce, the taste is slightly thicker and slightly bitter.
There is also a slight difference in appearance between lettuce leaves and lettuce leaves. The veins of lettuce leaves are prominent and slightly wrinkled, and the leaves are relatively wide and dark in color; lettuce is bright green, with a smooth surface and elongated shape.
Both vegetables are rich in dietary fiber and vitamins, and lettuce leaves also contain trace elements such as carotene, calcium, and iron.
Lettuce is not lettuce seedlings, but it tastes similar.
1. They are one species, both are lettuce.
2. Not the same variety.
Let’s first take a look at the lettuce family. Lettuce, head lettuce, mosaic lettuce, and lettuce are all lettuce. It's just that the direction of cultivation is different, and it eventually turns into a different food form. Again, it’s like the difference between a Chihuahua and a Golden Retriever.
It is worth mentioning that lettuce is really a variety of lettuce cultivated by the Chinese. I don’t know whether it is out of love for bamboo shoots or love for stems. In short, the Chinese have cultivated this kind of pole-eating lettuce. Mainly lettuce. But don’t forget, in the hometown of lettuce, lettuce is eaten from the leaves. When I was a child, I read fairy tales about eating lettuce after picking it from the field. I thought, shouldn’t I peel it?
