Storage: Tender greens store best cleaned and dried. After rinsing leaves, dry in a salad spinner or wrap in paper towel. Store in the fridge in a bag that minimizes further drying out. Most hearty greens do not need to be washed, but should be dry before storing in a bag to preserve.
Uses: See individual greens (or closest type) for best uses. For example, Brussels sprouts tops are similar to collards and endive/escarole resembles lettuce.
