Steps:
- If using fresh spinach, unbundle and soak in a sink full of cold water.
- Swish around and drain water out of the sink.
- Repeat.
- This is to remove sand and grit.
- Chop coarsely when ready to cook.
- Drain spinach and steam on medium heat in large pan.
- Meanwhile saute mushrooms, onion and garlic in oil on med-high heat.
- When spinach is tender, drain all remaining water (if any water remains the dish will be too watery) and add mushroom/onions.
- Turn off heat and stir in sour cream, add salt and pepper to taste and mix well.
- Add more sour cream if you wish-- this is up to the cook.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose fresh ingredients: Use the freshest spinach, mushrooms, and onions you can find for the best flavor and texture.
- Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become mushy and lose its vibrant green color.
- Use a variety of mushrooms: Feel free to experiment with different types of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, or oyster mushrooms, to add different flavors and textures to the dish.
- Add some garlic and herbs: For extra flavor, add a minced garlic clove and a pinch of dried thyme or oregano to the sautéed mushrooms and onions.
- Use a good quality cream: The cream is a key ingredient in this dish, so use a good quality cream that has a rich, creamy flavor.
- Season to taste: Be sure to taste the creamed spinach before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or nutmeg to taste.
