The water content in lettuce causes ice crystals to form during the freezing process, leading to a mushy texture once it thaws. However, if you have an abundance of lettuce and don't want it to go to waste, you can try blanching it first. Blanching involves briefly boiling the lettuce leaves for a few seconds, then immediately transferring them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once blanched, the lettuce can be frozen for up to six months. However, keep in mind that blanching may still affect the texture and taste of the lettuce, so it's best to use frozen lettuce in cooked dishes like soups or stews rather than salads.
