The message
from (Nick Maclaren) contains these words:


Lettuce soup isn't bad when made with
decent stock and loose, relatively dark lettuce leaves (such as
on bolted lettuces). I wouldn't say that it is exciting, even
then.

It's delicious made with good lettuce, good stock, a good helping of
frozen peas and some finely chopped onion. Season, including nutmeg.
Cook for just a few minutes, add mint leaves just before the end, whizz
to smooth.

Lettuce leaves 'wilted' in a little butter and then wrapped around peas,
finely sliced carrots etc. make a delicious and unusual veg option.
