Blond Lettuce
Fresh, delicate and mild, it is hard to resist its blond quiff. Try me any way you like.
TIP
Season with less salt and less oil to enhance my taste. All of us at Agricola Moderna are already as good as we are.
It wins you over leaf by leaf.
Caesar (blond) salad
What you need
  • Agricola Moderna blond lettuce
  • Grilled chicken breast or any vegetable alternative
  • Croutons of bread
  • Parmesan cheese shavings
  • And... the legendary sauce made with oil, lemon, mustard, egg yolk, Worcestershire sauce and anchovies.
What you can do

Start with the most time-consuming preparation: the legendary dips. Start by mashing the anchovies, pepper, lemon zest and mustard in a bowl with a fork. Then add the egg yolk and lemon juice. Finally drizzle in the oil and whisk the sauce, finishing it off with a few drops of Worcestershire Sauce.

Now it's all downhill: place the Agricola Moderna blond lettuce in a bowl, lay the shredded chicken, bread croutons and parmesan shavings on top. Season now with the legendary sauce and enjoy!

Smashburger salad
What you need
  • Modern agricultural blond lettuce
  • Smashburger
  • Cheddar cheese
  • White onion
  • Ketchup
What you can do

The strettest recipe associated with the healthiest food: we bet you'll be licking your chops! Slice the onion and keep it aside. Then prepare your smashburger by cooking it and mashing it properly on the griddle. Place the cheese on top and let it melt. Now assemble all the ingredients: arrange the blond lettuce leaves on the cutting board, lay your chees smashburger on top, garnish with ketchup onion rings and finish it off with more blond lettuce daughters. Soft and juicy it will be a real treat for the palate, guilt-free!

Blond Lettuce

I am good
with everything.

Be gone pesticides!
We are simple salads. All we need is a protected environment, clean air, light and some water. Pesticides, plant protection products and herbicides are therefore naturally avoided.
Nickel
Free
We are free-spirited salads, which is why we are Nickel-free and avoid any association with heavy metals.
Saving useful resources for the planet.
My superpower? Growing vertically. Not only do we yield more by taking up less space, but our cultivation method needs so little water that we recycle used water and water generated by out plants.
Scroll down and we will tell you how we grow our salads.
I am born, I grow and I run on shelves
In Melzo, just outside Milan, there is an Agricola Moderna Vertical Farm where indoor crops are grown using the hydroponic method. There, inside two facilities, each 8 metres high, I grow naturally protected and controlled.
DAY 1
Sowing
I am sown in an organic substrate, composed of organic, draining materials that help me grow healthy and strong, while preventing me from coming into contact with Nickel or heavy metals.
Here we go!
What's on day 3?
DAY 3
Germination
For 3 days I am in a small enclosed cell and thanks to the darkness, humidity, uncontaminated air and controlled temperature, I finally germinate.
There’s light at the end of the tunnel!
From day 4 something starts
DAY 4-19
Growth
The secret of my beauty? LED lights with the right wave frequency and the hydroponic irrigation method. I therefore grow in a healthy manner. In fact, I am certified Nickel-free with Zero pesticides.
My roots are growing strong.
On the 20th-are you ready?
day 20
Check-ups and Harvesting
For 20 days I grow and am monitored by careful agronomists and through technological sensors. Then I am cut, packed and ready to go on my way.
They control me because I am unpredictable.
The dawn of a new day: the 21st
DAY 21
Arrival at the supermarket
I am on the shelves in 24 hours, ready to be chosen! I am grown in a naturally protected environment thanks to indoor farming, so I am naturally ready for consumption. I don’t undergo washing or treatment and therefore retain all my freshness and texture. Thanks to this small natural choice, I have a longer shelf life than all other salads. I will keep in your fridge for up to 12 days after packing.
I’m coming!

Now you know everything about my life...
but what about my packaging?

My packaging is made of 100% recyclable plastic and is 70% produced from renewable sources.
In particular, from used frying oil that could not enter any other production cycle.
