This rare edible lettuce alternative looks like expensive jewelry! It has a special succulent like fleshy consistency with small little textured droplets that look like diamonds.The Ice lettuce is certainly one of the most interesting things you can plant in the garden.The French call it Ficoïde Glacial and they serve it along seafood and other gourmet items.The flavor is a bit acidic and salty and really is versatile in recipes as it offers more of a texture component to the dish rather than an intense flavor. It is worth growing even just to enjoy its beauty.
