Tips

It’s a quick and simple recipe, so make sure to move quickly not to overcook the spinach. Keep it light with seasoning to have that subtle spinach flavor.

Best served as a side dish with Kimchi and rice. Also perfect with sushi or in a poke bowl. Amazing on a toasted bread.

Lasts in the fridge for up to 5 days.
