Good Eats: Little Gems Lettuce

My mystery box offered up several Little Gems lettuces last week, a most pleasant event indeed! We featured them here a few years back but they’re well worth revisiting.Little Gems look like tiny versions of Romaine lettuce, with a crisp, crunchy texture and a sweet flavor. My favorite way to serve them couldn’t be easier: simply cut in half and drizzled with a nice lemon-shallot vinaigrette.
