Using a clean sink, fill your sink with cold water.  You want to get the water really cold. To do this I just add some ice cubes.

 

Then separate all of your lettuce leave and place them in the water for 15-20 mins. About half way through flip your lettuce over, just to ensure both sides get soaked in the cold water.

Your final result should look something like this.

  1. Considering that lettuce is the one thing I don’t like getting my Bountiful Basket, because it wilts before I use it, this post is very helpful. I’ve heard of doing something like this, but haven’t seen a before and after photo. I will have try this next time.
