Cos lettuce (shredded)

Cos lettuce, also known as romaine lettuce, has long, sturdy leaves with a crisp texture and a slightly bitter, mild flavour. It is the traditional lettuce used in Caesar salad and is also used in sandwiches, wraps, and grilled preparations due to its sturdiness. Its firm ribs hold up better to dressing and handling than more delicate lettuces.

Shredding produces long, thin strips that trap more air than a fine grate, so shredded measurements are typically lighter per cup.
