Here’s how to cut and prep your romaine hearts for salads.
- Rinse & dry the romaine.
- Trim the stem base (cut off about ½–1 inch).
- Slice lengthwise in half (or into quarters if you want smaller pieces).
- Lay them cut-side down and slice crosswise into bite-size strips.
- Do not wash the romaine if you’re planning on storing it (moisture speeds up spoilage).
- Keep the whole romaine hearts in their original package, or you can remove them from the package and wrap them loosely in paper towels.
- Place in a vented produce bag or leave slightly open.
- Store in the crisper drawer of the fridge.
