Spinach or Spinage

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no cooking times; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.

  1. Wash the spinach leaves thoroughly.

  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add a pinch of salt.

  3. Add the spinach leaves to the boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender.

  4. Drain the spinach and serve as a side dish or with meat.

Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
