Why is it important to cut lettuce with a sharp knife?

It is actually better to tear lettuce than it is to cut it, especially if you want it to stay fresh. Cutting lettuce makes it turn brown and wilt faster then it does when you tear it. But if you do cut it use a sharp knife because that will keep the edges clean, instead of being ragged. Also the metal in the knife causes a reaction that will make it wilt and go bad.


Can rabbits eat romain lettuce?

Yes, rabbits can eat romaine lettuce, but only the dark-coloured parts (tear off the white/light-coloured bits and avoid entirely the heart or baby leaves). Too much romaine can lead to illness, so romaine can be included in the rabbit's "salad" but rabbits shouldn't eat lettuce every day. See the related question below for more details about the rabbit diet.

How early before serving should lettuce salad be made?

This would depend on what is in the salad, if you are going to prepare it and then refrigerate it, and if you leave the dressing off until you serve it. If the salad has cucumbers, tomatoes, or other vegetables that contain a lot of natural moisture, it can cause your lettuce to become limp. If you make the salad(s) then refrigerate, it will remain crisp and brightly colored. If you combine your dressing with the salad too far in advance, it will cause the lettuce to become limp, as well. Ideally, if all of these guidelines are followed, you can make it about a day ahead of time. Also, if you are cutting your own lettuce up, and aren't eating the salad immediately, you should TEAR the leaves, and NOT use a knife. The reaction with the knife and lettuce is what causes the brown edges on the leaves.
