Spinach benefits from cold temperatures to develop sweetness. By overwintering (planting in the fall and covering), this spinach has had plenty of time and cold weather to sweeten up. It’s some of the tastiest spinach of the year.
With the amount of other greens, we went ahead and hit the pause button on these. Use this week, next week, or in 4 months. You won’t be making a crunchy salad but the flavor and quality of the frozen spinach will be near identical to if you were to have cooked it from fresh.
Add at the last moment to any dish that calls for spinach to minimize over cooking.
