LETTUCE FRISEE

Frisée Lettuce (also known as Curly Endive) is a unique and striking variety of lettuce that belongs to the chicory family. It is known for its frilly, curly leaves and a characteristic bitter flavor, which makes it a popular choice for adding texture and contrast to a variety of dishes. Often used in salads, garnishes, and cooked dishes, Frisée adds both visual appeal and a bold flavor.

Frisée is a low-calorie vegetable, making it a healthy addition to salads and meals without adding many calories. Frisée is rich in vitamin A (important for eye health), vitamin K (essential for blood clotting and bone health), and vitamin C (for immune health). It also contains folate, iron, and potassium. The dark green and red-tipped leaves of Frisée contain antioxidants, such as beta-carotene and flavonoids, which help fight oxidative stress and inflammation in the body.
