Categories     sauces and gravies

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 ounces fresh spinach, trimmed and rinsed well
1 cup cream, plus more as needed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and black pepper
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Plunge the spinach into the boiling water, and cook for no more than a minute; transfer to an ice bath with a slotted spoon. Drain well, and squeeze with your hands to remove as much water as possible.
  • Put the cream and spinach in a blender or food processor, and purée. Transfer the mixture to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter, and sprinkle with salt, pepper and nutmeg if you're using it. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture gently bubbles and thickens; add more cream for a thinner sauce. Taste, and adjust the seasoning and serve hot.

This creamed spinach sauce was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less butter and cream.
