Sauteed Spinach with Toasted Sesame Oil
A delicious and quick spinach saute is a nice addition to any meal.
Ingredients
-
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
-
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
2 teaspoons minced ginger
-
1 10-ounce bag fresh spinach, (see Ingredient note), tough stems removed
-
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
-
1 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
Directions
1.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add sesame seeds, garlic and ginger; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until just wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar and soy sauce. Serve immediately.
Tip:
Ingredient Note: The sturdier texture of mature spinach stands up better to sauteing than baby spinach and it's a more economical choice. We prefer to serve baby spinach raw.
