Lamb’s Lettuce Powder

A few days ago, I made lamb’s lettuce powder to use in my first entry for the #globalbeanchallenge, which you’ll see in the next post.

You can use it in sauces and vinaigrettes, in batter (mixed with breadcrumbs to add color), in tuiles, as a garnish, or however else your imagination takes you.
I dehydrated it in the microwave on parchment paper for a few minutes, pausing occasionally so it wouldn’t burn. The drying time depends on your microwave. Once dry, I ground it in a spice grinder.

To keep it from losing its vibrant color or clumping:

Store it in an airtight glass jar.
Keep the jar in a cool, dark place (direct light quickly destroys the chlorophyll and will turn the powder grayish or brown).
