Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (10-ounce) bunches spinach (preferably with root ends intact)
1 1/2 tablespoons Japanese sesame paste
1 1/2 tablespoons Saikyo shiro miso (white fermented soybean paste)
1 tablespoon water
1/8 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
Special Equipment
kitchen string

Steps:

  • Wash spinach well. Gather spinach, root ends together, into 4 equal bunches and tie each bunch tightly around middle of stems with string. Blanch spinach, 2 bunches at a time, in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until just wilted, 15 to 30 seconds, then transfer with tongs to a large bowl of cold water to cool. Drain spinach and squeeze excess water from each bunch, squeezing well several times. Cut off string and cut spinach crosswise into 1-inch strips, including first inch of stems. Discard tough stem ends.
  • Stir together sesame paste, miso, water, and soy sauce to form a smooth, thick sauce.
  • Toss spinach with sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

This dish is a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and ginger and it was much better.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really watery. Other than that, the dish was good.

This was a great way to use up some leftover spinach. I also added some tofu for extra protein.
