WORLD'S BEST SPINACH DIP

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together.
• I add the spinach last because it gives the cream cheese longer to soften, making it easier to stir.
• Cover and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

BEST SPINACH RECIPE

Steps:

• First prepare a béchamel: Melt the butter in a saucepan.
• Add the flour and mix well.
• Pour some milk little by little, stirring continually with a wooden spatula to incorporate the milk into the mixture.
• Continue pouring the milk until obtaining a thick white sauce (a little less than a pint of milk should do).
• Season with salt and pepper. You can add ground nutmeg to the white sauce to improve the flavours.
• Next, prepare some boiled eggs.
• Then, put the spinach with a tablespoon of water in a saucepan and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes (a bit longer if using frozen spinach).
• When cooked, salt the spinach and move it into the sauce.
• Mix well.
• To make the croutons, break the bread slices into bite size pieces.
• Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan and brown the bread each side for a few minutes Remove the bread from the pan.
• Pour the spinach mixture into the frying pan and maintain on a low heat to keep the spinach hot until serving.
• Sprinkle with the croutons on top.
• Cut the boiled eggs in half and serve in plates with the spinach and croutons.

GARLIC SAUTEED SPINACH

Steps:

• Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it's very clean. Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves.
• In a very large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic over medium heat for about 1 minute, but not until it's browned. Add all the spinach, the salt, and pepper to the pot, toss it with the garlic and oil, cover the pot, and cook it for 2 minutes. Uncover the pot, turn the heat on high, and cook the spinach for another minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the spinach is wilted. Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with the butter, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkling of sea or kosher salt. Serve hot.
