Ingredients
- 17 oz spinach (about 2 large bunches)
- 1 teaspoon salt for blanching
Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Regular soy sauce feel free to add ½ tablespoon more if you like it saltier
- 2 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon white granulated sugar
Instructions
- Chop your spinach into 2-inch-long pieces. Removing the roots but keeping the stems.
- In a large bowl, wash your spinach at least 4-5 times in cold running water to remove a lot of dirt. The water should run green but clear at the bottom of the bowl. Strain the water.
- In a large pot filled with water, add salt, and bring to a boil. Blanch spinach for no more than 20-30 seconds.
- Quickly strain the spinach and rinse with cold running water until the spinach is cold to touch. Alternatively, you may transfer spinach to an ice bath.
- Drain the cold water. With clean hands, gather the spinach into a ball and squeeze out as much water as possible. Transfer spinach to a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine sauce ingredients until combined.
- Pour sauce over spinach and mix with clean hands or tongs. Serve and enjoy!
