Fenberg Lettuce

Believed to be native to North America, Fenberg lettuce is favored for its unique sweet flavor, and is predominately used in fresh preparations to showcase its crisp, tender texture. Plus, it contains fiber, vitamins A, K, and C, potassium, iron, manganese, and eighteen essential amino acids. It also has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-boosting properties. In addition, Fenberg lettuce is best suited for raw applications, and its leaves can be used whole or chopped without altering their flavor or texture. These leaves can, for instance, be used in salads with nuts, fruit, and cheeses, as a bed of greens for presenting meat, or as a garnish for appetizers and rolls.
