Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding salt while blanching makes the spinach greener and improves its texture, making it more tender.
  • While spinach dishes can be made with soy sauce or salt, using rich, traditional soybean paste enhances both flavor and sweetness significantly.
  • For the best results in winter, use firm, sweet island spinach grown in sea wind—it delivers the most delicious flavor.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a wonderful side dish using sweet, seasonal spinach in winter.
  • Those looking for a unique, savory soybean paste version instead of the usual salted spinach side dish.
