Simply open the package and separate the leaves. For salads, toss them with your favorite dressing and other ingredients like vegetables, proteins, or cheese. They are sturdy enough to hold up to creamy dressings. You can also chop them finely and add them to wraps or sandwiches for an extra layer of texture and freshness. For a light appetizer, drizzle with a vinaigrette and top with a sprinkle of herbs.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to whole romaine heads, these hearts are more convenient as they are already trimmed and separated. They tend to be more tender than the outer leaves of a full head, offering a more refined texture for immediate use in lighter preparations.

How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the package tightly to preserve freshness. Store in the refrigerator, ideally in the crisper drawer. Consume within a few days for the best quality and crispness. Avoid storing with ethylene-producing fruits.
