Tips:

  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked spinach will be mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender will make it easy to purée the spinach, cilantro, and other ingredients until they are smooth and creamy.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the dip before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to taste.
  • Serve with your favorite dippers: This dip is great with a variety of dippers, such as tortilla chips, pita chips, vegetable crudités, or crackers.
