Chinese Stem Lettuce is named after its unique combination of characteristics, the celery-like stalks and the lettuce-like leaves. It resembles a Romaine lettuce sat on top of a long, thick stalk.The inner stem has the same kind of juicy crunch that makes celery appealing. Although some find a celery-like taste when raw the flavour is milder and more delicate. It is more often compared to asparagus or even cucumber when cooked.
