THE BEST CREAMED SPINACH



The Best Creamed Spinach image

Use frozen or fresh spinach for this easy creamed spinach recipe that's the ultimate cozy side dish! It comes together in just 25 minutes and has that restaurant-quality taste you crave.

Provided by Natasha Bull

Categories     Side Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound frozen chopped spinach or 2 pounds fresh (see notes)
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 medium onion (chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
3/4 cup heavy/whipping cream
4 ounces cream cheese (1/2 block Philly) (softened)
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
Pinch nutmeg
Salt & pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Frozen spinach: Thaw the spinach under running water (or try microwaving it for a few minutes to speed up the process), then squeeze out as much of the excess water as you can. Fresh spinach: Boil a pot of water. Add the spinach and cook for about 1 minute. Drain it and rinse it under cool water. Squeeze out excess water. Chop if desired.
  • In a pot, sauté the butter and onion over medium heat until it's lightly browned (about 5-7 minutes).
  • Reduce heat (I keep it on medium-low for this step, but you can increase heat as needed). Stir in the garlic, followed by the heavy cream, cream cheese, parmesan, and nutmeg. It will take a few minutes for the cream cheese to melt in, especially if the cream cheese is cold. I break it up with my spoon/stir it continuously. The sauce should thicken up as it cooks.
  • Stir in the spinach and let it heat through. If you want more liquid, add in a splash more cream. If there's too much liquid, you may need to cook the spinach for a few more minutes to reduce the sauce to your liking.
  • Season with salt & pepper as needed (I am pretty generous with both).

CREAMED SPINACH



Creamed Spinach image

Made with frozen spinach and heavy cream, this easy yet elegant side dish can be made ahead of time and reheated in the microwave.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Vegetables & Sides

Yield 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup finely chopped shallots, from 1 to 2 shallots
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 pint (2 cups) heavy cream
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Pinch freshly grated nutmeg, or use ground nutmeg
½ cup finely shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano
2 pounds frozen cut leaf spinach, thawed and squeezed very dry (see note)

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute more. Do not brown. Add the heavy cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg and bring to a gentle boil. Cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the cream is thick enough to coat a wooden spoon, about 10 minutes. Add the cheese and stir until melted. Add the spinach and stir until evenly combined with the cream sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. (If the spinach seems a little watery, cook over medium-low heat until any excess liquid evaporates.) Serve warm.
  • Note: Cut leaf spinach is not the same as chopped spinach. If your market doesn't carry cut leaf spinach, look for frozen whole leaf spinach. (Chopped spinach will work but the texture won't be as appealing.) Some markets carry 1-lb bags and some carry 10-oz boxes; if you can only find the 10-oz boxes, you'll need three of them. If you'd like to start with fresh spinach, you'll need about 2 pounds baby spinach leaves. Steam and drain the baby spinach, then roughly chop and measure out 2 packed cups.
  • Make-Ahead Instructions: This dish can be made and refrigerated a day ahead of time. Reheat in the microwave, uncovered, stirring every 30 seconds or so, until hot, a few minutes. When reheated, the spinach won't be quite as creamy-looking as it was originally (though the taste will be the same); you can add a bit of cream when reheating to get a creamier consistency, if you'd like.

BEST HEALTHY CREAMED SPINACH



Best Healthy Creamed Spinach image

Healthy creamed spinach, laced with onion and garlic, is one of the yummiest comfort side dishes ever. Keep it light or make it rich. It's up to you.

Provided by Cheryl

Categories     Side Dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 10 oz package chopped frozen spinach ((or 15 cups fresh baby spinach, about 1 1/2 lbs or 16 oz,, roughly chopped))
3 tablespoon butter and oil, any combination ((eg. 2 tbsp butter + 1 tbsp oil))
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions or onion ((about 1/2 medium onion))
1 teaspoon minced garlic - about 1 clove ((or 1/4 tsp garlic powder))
2 tablespoons all purpose flour ((or 1 1/2 tablespoons arrowroot flour for gluten free))
1 1/4 cups milk (fat free, 2% or whole milk)
1/4 cup half and half (10%) cream
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese or more, to taste

Steps:

  • COOK SPINACH: Cook frozen spinach in microwave as per package instructions. I add a teaspoon of water and microwave it, covered, for 3 1/2 minutes on High. Drain in strainer, squeezing out as much moisture as possible. It's ok if a little bit remains. Note 1 for using fresh spinach.
  • MAKE CREAM SAUCE: Heat butter and/or oil on medium heat in a medium saucepan. Add onions and sauté gently for 3 minutes. Add garlic and sauté another 30 seconds. Mix in flour to make a roux. Stir for 2 minutes until it turns pale brown. Don't let it get dark. Add any combination of milk and cream that you like to equal 1 1/2 cups/354 ml. I generally use mostly fat free or 2% milk and about 1/4 cup half and half (10%) cream. Stir until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add salt, black pepper and nutmeg (if using) to your taste.
  • COMBINE: Stir in cooked well-squeezed-out chopped spinach. Add Parmesan cheese if using. If mixture is too thick, add more milk until desired consistency is reached. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve immediately. Note 3 to make ahead.

2021-03-26 Spinach: Use fresh baby spinach leaves for best results. Frozen leaf spinach can be used as a substitute, but you must thaw and drain it first. I do not recommend using frozen chopped spinach. Cream: If you want to make a lighter dish, feel free to use more milk in place of the cream. Half and half or evaporated milk are also good substitutes.
