It may seem strange and unusual to learn about pickled lettuce, but believe me it is a very tasty and useful condiment. Everywhere you use vegetable pickles, this sweet and sour condiment will add a bright and piquant flavor. Growing up we couldn’t wait for the beginning of fresh lettuce season so our Mom could make this condiment. You can use it in all kind of sandwiches instead of cucumber pickles or in tacos instead of cabbage slaw, or also just as an accompaniment to meat and fish dishes. I like to lightly squeeze out the pickling liquid, add a little fragrant extra-virgin olive oil, some freshly chopped dill and cucumber slices and eat it as a salad. Try it and I am sure you’ll find a lot of creative ways for using this condiment.
