Pickled Lettuce with Sauce

Pickled Lettuce with Sauce

Celtuce segments are first salted until pliable, air-dried, then bathed in sweet bean sauce for a tangy, earthy jarred vegetable with a pleasantly crunchy texture.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Peel the lettuce, cut it into large sections or rough chunks, place them in a small bowl, and sprinkle with refined salt to marinate for 2 hours.

    After marinating for 2 hours, the lettuce will release some water.

    Lettuce is ready once it has been pickled and softened.

    Place the pickled lettuce in a ventilated area to air dry. You can also soak it in clean water for a while to remove some of the salt, so the pickles prepared this way will have a sweet and sour taste.

    Place the dried lettuce in a small bowl or earthenware jar used for pickles, pour in sweet bean sauce, and add a little sugar.

  6. 6
    Step image

    Turn the lettuce over so that the sweet bean paste covers the lettuce. Turn it once a day, and it will be ready in 7 days.

    Lettuce that has been marinated can be eaten after being shredded or sliced.
