Chefs frequently tell us that Suncrest® Lettuce is very tasty, flavorful and, by the way, last weeks in the walk-in without losing flavor or texture! (This is because the leaves are ‘super-hydrated from growing hydroponically.) They have also noticed how clean it is without roots — making kitchen prep faster, easier, and cheaper.
In the SF Bay Area, Suncrest currently markets Bibb lettuce, Early Bibb (a smaller early cut of our Bibb), Red Romaine, Baby Red Romaine (a smaller early cut of our Red Romaine), Green Romaine, Little Gem, Red Oak and TriMix (Suncrest’s mixed salad of red and green Salanova® with mustard greens.)
Our Bibb lettuce is very similar to Butter and Boston varieties, but the leaves are typically larger — excellent for salads as well as lettuce wraps. Our full size Red Romaine is a wonderfully attractive lettuce that makes for an exquisite Caesar salad, while the leaves of our baby red plate nicely.
