In the troposphere, temperatures decrease with altitude (air pressure), which is known as the adiabatic lapse rate (9.8 Â°C per thousand feet). While there are different tempeâ¦ratures throughout the atmosphere, there are both increases and decreases in it as one moves upwards.
To easily shred romaine lettuce, stack several washed and dried leaves, roll up to form a cylinder and slice crosswise at 1/4- to 1/2-inch intervals. For best results, do not toss lettuce with dressing until just before serving as the dressing wilts the leaves.
With leafy lettuce greens like romaine, red leaf or green leaf lettuce, you can follow the same process. I have found though that it is better to remove leafy greens from their plastic bag and pat the leaves dry with a paper towel before storing them if they are wet from the produce sprayer at the store.
