Cooking tips
- The root end of spinach contains concentrated sweetness, so do not discard it—just clean the outer surface thoroughly and use the entire stalk for better flavor.
- Prepared garlic burns easily and can become messy, so it’s best to crush whole garlic cloves with a knife rather than using pre-minced garlic.
- You can substitute bacon with smoked duck, sausage, or thinly sliced ham—the rich fat content works equally well.
- Overcooking spinach after adding it will make it tough and watery, so remove from heat while it’s still slightly crisp.
Recommended for
- Those needing a quick, elegant appetizer within minutes for unexpected guests.
- People looking for a unique and simple way to enjoy spinach beyond plain seasoned spinach salad.
- Fans of the salty, savory harmony between garlic and bacon oil.
