Portuguese term

folha de carvalho

Portuguese to English Other Cooking / Culinary Part of a Menu
This is another item from the menu I am working on. The entire description is "Pastéis estaladiços de queijo coalho e goiaba com folhas de carvalho e Rucula". As far as I know, carvalho is oak. I have never heard of oak leaves in a salad? I'm SURE I'm missing something here! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and best regards. Tonia

The Lettuce Oak Leaf, 'Lactuca sativa', is an old time favorite. Oak Leaf lettuce makes classy mixed salads and stays tasty even in drought and heat. If you get your garden in a little late, Oak Leaf lettuce may be one of the best varieties for you. Oak Leaf will stay tasty and non-bitter well into the heat of summer. The leaves are very attractive with the oak leaf shape. The plant is attractive with fairly tight rosettes of medium green leaves.

Origem:

A alface teve origem na Europa meridional, era cultivada no Antigo Egipto, e também conhecida pelos Gregos e Romanos. As inúmeras variedades de que hoje desfrutamos são o resultado de selecções que datam dos séculos XVII e XVIII. A alface folha de carvalho deve o seu nome à semelhança com as folhas do carvalho.
