Butter lettuce, also known as butterhead or Bibb lettuce, is a type of lettuce with soft, tender, and mild-flavored leaves that have a velvety, buttery texture. It is popular in salads, as a wrap, or in sandwiches, and can also be used as a delicate base for other dishes. Its fragile leaves bruise easily, so it should be handled gently and is often sold with roots intact to maintain freshness.
