Cos Lettuce

Think of a bowl of Caesar salad and that’s Cos (or should be). Crispy, thick and narrow green leaves that have a milky fluid and a slightly bitter taste.

Royal Oak Leaf

The name comes from its similarity to oak leaves. It has a mild taste but they’re pretty heat tolerant, which means you won’t lose the Vitamin A or the sweetness if used in cooking.

Iceberg or Crisphead

It is the most common, but also the least nutritious, as it is bred to have some bitterness removed. Moist and mild-flavored, it is usually very light-green, almost white in color.

Arugula or Rocket

Another popular leaf, this has a strong, peppery flavor. This small flat leaf is packed with Vitamins A, K and C.

Red Leaf

Categorized in the same group of oak leaves, this sweet, tender and cute purple-color leaf is good for salads and sandwiches.

Butterhead/Romaine

Popular among the hydroponics farms in Thailand, it is common in salads, thanks to its slightly sweet, almost buttery, taste.
