A cooking green that is a celtuce variety of garden lettuce grown for its thick edible stem instead of the leaf, which is thin and bitter tasting. The leaf can be used for salads if it is harvested early when it is young. The stem is used mainly in salads, stews, soups, and steamed dishes. It is also known as stem lettuce or Chinese stem lettuce.
