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.

Christie, everything Iβve tried in your post was wonderful.π I lived in Asia as a teenager and Korean food was my favorite. I loved your spinach in my favorite dish, Bibimbop. All your entries, which you shared so generously, sound wonderful & I canβt wait to try them ALL.
EVERYTHING in your entry here is WONDERFUL! ! ! Thank you so much for sharing what you know with us. πππ€©π
I make this a few times a week - easy to make. I don't rinse the spinach after, but I have another bowl with ice and water. I drop the spinach in there, and quickly drain. I use less oil (just a tiny drop because sesame oil is very heavy for me) and I use maple syrup instead instead of white sugar, and it still tastes great! Love this!
I loved it. It was so simple and tasty. My new way of eating spinach now.
