🥗 Product Category (English):
Lamb's lettuce, also known as mâche (French), corn salad, common cornsalad, field salad, nut lettuce, or rapunzel, is a small, herbaceous annual plant scientifically classified as Valerianella locusta in the Caprifoliaceae (honeysuckle) family. Native to Europe, western Asia, and North Africa, it has been cultivated for centuries and remains a beloved winter salad green in many European countries, particularly France, Germany, Italy, and the UK. The plant forms compact rosettes of soft, spoon-shaped or rounded, bright to dark green leaves that are delicate and velvety in texture. Unlike common lettuce, it offers a mild, nutty, slightly tangy flavor without bitterness, making it exceptionally tender and appealing raw in salads—often described as a cross between butter lettuce and baby spinach. It can also be lightly steamed or sautéed. Highly cold-hardy, it thrives in cool weather and is one of the few greens that grows well in winter. Nutritionally superior to many lettuces, it is rich in vitamin C (three times more than regular lettuce), beta-carotene (vitamin A precursor), vitamin B6, folate, iron (highest among lettuces), potassium, magnesium, and antioxidants, supporting immune function, blood health, eye health, and overall vitality while being low in calories.
