Edible parts

Leaves
Recipe idea for your Bergam's Green lettuce harvest. Prepare a large salad using freshly picked leaves. Rinse them in several changes of water if there is soil in the folds, then spin them dry thoroughly. Tear the large leaves into bite-sized pieces and keep the smaller ones whole. Whisk together one tablespoon of cider vinegar with three tablespoons of oil, a bit of mustard, and a pinch of salt. Pour on only enough to coat the leaves. Add apple wedges, diced cheese, and a few shelled sunflower seeds. Toss with your hands or two large spoons to maintain volume and serve immediately. Well-dried leaves hold dressing better and prevent a watery plate. Thick ribs can be chopped more finely than the tender parts to balance the bites. If combining multiple harvests, use the sturdiest leaves as a base and add the most delicate ones last.
