I had it in mind to order a salad of young lettuces.

Yuno's Farm in Bordentown, N.J., brings young lettuces, barely forming heads, into several Greenmarkets all season.

She was lying in the salad bed, her skirt flown out like some gigantic, rusty flower blooming amid the young lettuces.

Nothing was ordinary about the way this kitchen made it - pressed to the grill, the juicy slab warming the young lettuce leaves beneath.

A 20th century Jewish rabbi referred to the herbicidal powers of menstrual blood, in regard of young lettuces, due to its toxic rot and impurity.

They are particularly fond of the early vegetable specialties including young lettuce and spinach seedlings.

The colors are a riot of red and orange, set off by the bright green of young lettuces, which add the perfect bit of texture to the dish.

Half a grapefruit or orange scraped out and put down forms a trap for slugs attacking young lettuce or rockery plants.

Instead, these Asian greens are found as tiny components of West Coast-style mesclun, a variation on French mesclun, which is a mixture of young lettuce leaves and other greens.
