Unidentified Lettuce?

Posted by like10thousand, June 8, 2008

Hey all!

So I bought this lettuce at the grocery store yesterday because it looked interesting. Then I promptly forgot what it was called, and therefore can't find a recipe for it. I could fake it, but I'd rather know what it is and do something interesting.

It's a beautiful lettuce - it's a tight round head with large, crinkled leaves, a dark green color. It's too chewy raw, but it has a slightly bitter, deep taste. It tastes green.

I'll try uploading a photo:

If you know what my lettuce is, and have any delicious ideas for it, I'm open to those suggestions too!
Thanks,
Alyssa
