Ingredients
Directions
Remove the large stems from the spinach.
Wash the leaves in plenty of cold water and drain in a colander.
Place the spinach in a saucepan with lightly salted boiling water.
Use a wooden spoon to keep the spinach submerged and boil until cooked.
Immerse the cooked spinach in cold water, drain, and press out all excess water.
