Rinse, soak, dry, repeat! Here are 4 simple steps to ensure your lettuce is squeaky clean and crisp!
Step 1: Fill Your Sink (Or a Large Bowl)
Fill your sink or large bowl with cold water.
Step 2: Dunk Your Greens
Separate your greens and dunk in cold water. Swirl water to get into all the nooks and crannies of the leaves.
Step 3: Let Then Soak
Let the lettuce soak in the water for about 10 minutes. This allows time for any dirt or sand to fall off the leaves.
Step 4: Dry the Lettuce
Remove your greens from the water and shake them to remove any excess. Wrap greens in a dry kitchen towel or paper towel. Let the water absorb before storing.
