Roman-Style Spinach

1. 1

   Wash the spinach and then put the wet spinach into a pan with a dose of salt. Cook until all the spinach is blanched (completely wilted), but still bright green.

2. 2

   Remove the spinach from the pan & drain in a collander.

3. 3

   Heat the oil in the same pan. Add the garlic + red pepper flakes. When the garlic starts to brown just a bit, add the spinach back in. Mix until all of the spinach is covered by oil. Add either the lemon juice or vinegar and heat until the liquid has condensed a bit. Serve.
