Spinach Green

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pound the spinach well, adding a few drops of water.

  2. Squeeze the juice through a cloth and place it over a strong fire.

  3. Once it looks curdy, remove it from the heat and strain the liquid through a sieve.

  4. The residue on the sieve will be the coloring matter.
