Lettuce Storage

Question

My husband is from a more rural area then I am. I have always bought lettuce brought it into the house, cleaned the whole head, sometimes wrapping in papertowels until the water drains and it stays crisp. My husband thinks you should put it in the fridge dirty and wash the leaves as you need them.

Answer 1
