Garlic Creamed Spinach
Recipe By :Bill Cotton
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:05
Categories : Fruits-Vegetables
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 pounds spinach
1 teaspoon salt
2 cloves garlic -- smashed
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/3 cup heavy cream
salt and freshly ground black pepper -- to taste
Remove the tough stems from the spinach and blanch in a large pot of boiling water that has been seasoned with salt for about 10-15 seconds.
Drain and rinse under cold water. Squeeze the excess water from the spinach. Put the spinach in a Potato Ricer and it will squeeze it almost dry.
Just before you are ready to serve spinach, bring the cream, nutmeg and garlic to a boil in a medium saucepan and season with salt and pepper. The cream will begin to thicken after about 3 to 5 minutes, but be careful not to let it burn (cream will boil over if not watched carefully). Remove smashed garlic from cream and discard.
When the cream gets really thick, add the spinach, reduce heat and stir to completely coat the spinach. Once the spinach has absorbed the cream, it is ready to serve.
