Creamed spinach

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Side Dishes
The modern, lighter cousin of spinach pottage. There is no flour roux here; the thickness comes from the reduction of the cream. A quick side dish for pasta, roast meats, or even salmon. The pairing of spinach and cream is classic, completed by nutmeg.

Instructions

1 ✓

Melt the butter in the pan, throw in the crushed garlic, then immediately after, the washed spinach.

Tip: Don't wait for the garlic to brown; the moisture of the spinach will protect it from burning.
2 ✓

Sauté until the spinach wilts (approx. 2-3 minutes).

Tip: Under heat, the leaves lose their structure.
3 ✓

Pour in the cream, season with salt, and grate in some nutmeg. Boil until the sauce thickens.

Tip: Thickening the cream by boiling (reduction) makes the flavours more intense and gives a creamy texture without a roux.

Recipe FAQ

What cream should I use?
Single cream (10-20%) is okay, but double cream (30%+) gives the truly creamy consistency.
The spinach has collapsed. Is this normal?
Yes, spinach has a high water content; under heat, the cell structure collapses and its volume reduces to a fraction.
