Cook Baby Spinach Leaves





Cook Baby Spinach Leaves - Rinse the baby spinach leaves thoroughly in cool water. Sort through and remove any particularly thick or woody stems. This should not be a concern with most baby spinach, but it is worth checking. Dry the baby spinach gently with paper towels.

Place the butter or extra virgin olive oil into a large pan over medium heat. Heat until the butter melts completely or the olive oil is hot.

Add the baby spinach to the pan. Stir gently with a wooden spoon to help evenly coat the spinach with the oil or melted butter, then cover the pan, and cook the spinach for about one minute. Remove the lid, and stir the spinach again. Repeat this process until the spinach is wilted to your satisfaction, then remove the pan from the heat.

Tilt the pan sideways over your sink, holding the spinach in place with the wooden spoon. This will allow any extra moisture in the pan to drain off. Remove the spinach from the pan, and place it onto a plate or into a bowl. Add any seasonings you wish, such as salt, pepper or more butter, then serve or eat.



Spinach contains significant amounts of nutrients. A single cup of raw spinach -- which will reduce after you cook it -- offers 13 percent of your recommended daily manganese, 14 percent of your daily vitamin C, 15 percent of your daily folate, 56 percent of your daily vitamin A and a full 181 percent of your daily vitamin K, according to SELFNutritionData.com. Baby spinach is easier to prepare than its more mature version because it is more tender and lacks the soil-grittiness found in larger bundles of spinach. In fact, baby spinach is so tender that you can eat it raw if you prefer. Add this to my Recipe Box. - by eHow
