The variety of green salad knows no bounds: today there are more than a hundred edible species so anyone can find something to their liking. We talk about the 10 most common varieties of green salad that you can find in almost any supermarket.
Iceberg
One of the most popular salads in the world. It is added to many dishes as a side dish and snack. If you have ever dined at an average tourist restaurant in a popular European metropolis, you have definitely tasted an iceberg. This salad is distinguished by large light green crispy juicy leaves and a slightly sweetish neutral taste.
Batavia
curly leaves Batavia you are well known. We bet this salad often ends up on your table. However, you might not know this, since varieties of such a salad are sold under the most unexpected names (it's a matter of selection), which, meanwhile, do not differ much from each other in taste. Slightly sweet batavia looks great in sandwiches and in sals with nuts and meat.
Korn
Lamb grass, as the root is also called, is small leaves collected in small bushes. Spicy-sweet, sometimes bitter, they go well with vegetable oils. It is better not to make them the basis of the salad - their taste is too bright, but adding it to other, more neutral leaves for piquancy will be the right decision.
Watercress
Spicy in taste, it perfectly complements popular salad mixes and will look good as an independent side dish for meat, especially beef.
lettuce
It cannot be called a particularly refined salad. It tastes bland, not particularly remarkable, and in general, one might say, even boring. However, we love it. It gives a noticeable freshness to sandwiches, and in other dishes it does not interrupt the tastes of other products.
Green lettuce leaves are a storehouse of vitamins with a minimum of calories. Watercress has an antibacterial effect, lettuce will help compensate for the lack of iron, arugula will strengthen the immune system.
Lollo Rossa
The most delicious version of this salad is the one with red leaves: it has a nutty taste with pronounced mustard notes.
Chard
It tastes like spinach and, unlike many other salads, is good not only in fresh but also boiled. Another cute feature of this salad is the bright, red stalks.
Chinese cabbage
Cheap and unremarkable salad. Based on it, chefs are not advised to do independent meals due too simple taste, but as an addition to sandwiches, these leaves will be ideal.
Romaine
It is customary to cook Caesar salad from romaine: its spicy leaves make a wonderful company with chicken, croutons and a sweetish sauce. However, together with other salads, he will also be great friends.
frise
This salad with pretty curly yellow-green leaves is often used to decorate dishes. We consider this an omission - its potential is clearly underestimated - and we advise you to add this salad with bitterness to fish and meat snacks as a spice.
