Blanching spinach

1.

Remove damaged leaves.

Wash spinach in a large bowl of cold water. Clean the root area first, then place the leaves in water and shake to remove remaining dirt.


2.

Bring water to boil. Add a pinch of salt.


3.

Put spinach in boiling water, the root side first.


4.

When color changes (brightens), immediately remove from boiling water and place in cold water to stop the spinach from cooking and to preserve the color.




5.

When the spinach has cooled, immediately squeeze out extra water.
