Zusammenfassung:•Radio-frequency (RF) heating efficiently inactivated the peroxidase of stem lettuce.•RF energy changed the physiochemical properties of stem lettuce.•Blanching treatments destroyed cell walls and membranes.•Damage to the microstructure deteriorated the physiochemical properties. This paper investigated the effects of radio-frequency (RF) energy and conventional hot-water blanching (95 °C for 2 min) on the peroxidase (POD) activity, physiochemical properties, and changes in the cellular morphology of stem lettuce. The relative residual POD activity significantly decreased (P
