Explore the rich, velvety world of our Classic Creamed Spinach recipe—a beloved traditional dish that seamlessly blends health and comfort in every spoonful.
Melt the butter in a pan over MEDIUM heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 5 minutes until aromatic.
Add the dried spinach. Stir occasionally until it has been reduced (i.e., the water has evaporated), about 5–8 minutes.
Set the heat to MEDIUM-HIGH. Add the cream and Parmesan. Stir until well mixed. Simmer for 5 minutes until the cream thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Notes
Fresh spinach can be used to heighten the flavor. Be sure to use enough, as spinach reduces dramatically when cooked.
Thoroughly thaw and dry your spinach before cooking to avoid a runny dish.
Full-fat cream will lend a more buttery and satisfying flavor and consistency to your spinach.
