How to Grow

Sow seeds directly into well-drained, fertile soil or seed-raising mix. Scatter seeds thinly on the surface and cover lightly with a fine layer of soil. Water gently and keep consistently moist. Lettuce prefers cooler growing conditions — best sown in autumn, winter, and spring in most of Australia (March–October). In tropical regions, grow during the cooler dry season. Provide afternoon shade in hot weather to prevent bolting. Harvest outer leaves as needed, leaving the centre to continue growing.

In the Kitchen

Loose leaf lettuce is incredibly versatile — use as a fresh base for Thai-style salads (yam) with lime dressing, herbs, and grilled meat. Wrap around Thai larb, minced pork, or satay for a fresh, crunchy lettuce cup. Use as a garnish for Thai dishes, platters, and sharing boards. Toss with cucumber, tomato, and a light sesame dressing for a simple everyday salad. Also perfect as a fresh wrap for Vietnamese-style rice paper rolls.
