I have been buying Artisan Lettuce at Costco. It comes in a clam-shell package with six (8, maybe? - can't remember exactly) little heads of lettuce - each a different variety. It keeps much better than the spring mix that Costco also sells. I take the heads out of the package and wrap them in dampened paper towels. Then I place them in a zip-lock bag, but I don't zip it all the way (read that somewhere).
Sounds prettier that way. Have you had lettuce soup? A friend of mine that has a local restaurant makes it with a potato and cream base. I'd like to try and lighten it up to see if it works. Best soup I ever had! The greens gave a nice peppery taste to it, and it was a beautiful dark green. Sounds awful, but very good.
