The Best Way to steam spinach
Steaming spinach is super easy! Here's how to do it:
- Wash your spinach leaves under cold water to remove any dirt.
- Put about 2 inches of water in a pot and place a steamer basket inside. Make sure the water doesn't touch the bottom of the basket.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- Put your spinach in the steamer basket.
- Cover the pot with a lid.
- Steam for only 2-3 minutes until the spinach is bright green and slightly wilted.
- Take it out carefully (it's hot!) and season with salt and pepper if you want.
Pro tip: Don't steam it too long or it'll get mushy!
