Cream of Spinach

Method

Cream of Spinach

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spinach

    Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold water. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Onion and Garlic

    In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Cook the Spinach

    Add the washed spinach to the saucepan. Stir until the spinach has wilted, which should take about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Cream and Seasonings

    Pour in the heavy cream and add nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and let simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  5. 5

    Blend the Mixture

    Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the mixture to a regular blender and blend until smooth, then return to the saucepan.

Poblano Corn

  1. 6

    Roast the Poblano Peppers

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred. Remove from the oven, cool, and chop.

  2. 7

    Sauté the Corn

    In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

  3. 8

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the chopped roasted poblano peppers, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and black pepper to the corn. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
