Store lettuce in the refrigerator, ideally in the crisper drawer, to maintain freshness. Keep it in a breathable bag or wrap it in a damp paper towel inside a plastic bag to prevent wilting. Avoid washing until ready to use to minimize moisture buildup, which can lead to spoilage. If pre-washed, ensure it is thoroughly dried before storing to extend shelf life.
