Mesclun Salad Mix

Store unwashed in its original packaging or a breathable container lined with paper towels. Avoid washing until just before serving to prevent wilting.

Gently wash and thoroughly dry mesclun before using to ensure dressings adhere well.

Combine with heartier greens like romaine or iceberg for added crunch.

Dress just before serving to prevent the delicate leaves from becoming soggy.

Excellent as a base for salads, but also can be lightly wilted into warm dishes.

Vinaigrettes (balsamic, lemon, raspberry)

Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries)

Nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds)

Goat cheese or feta cheese

Grilled chicken or salmon

Avocado

Washing the greens too far in advance, leading to wilting.

Over-dressing the salad, which can make the tender leaves slimy.

Using harsh or overpowering dressings that mask the delicate flavors of the greens.
