Organic Baby spinach
Young spinach leaves with a mild, clean flavour – tender enough to eat raw, stalks and all.
About our baby spinach
Harvesting spinach while it’s still young gives small leaves with a mild, clean flavour – tender enough to eat raw, stalks and all. They’re very versatile; use anywhere you want a burst of green freshness. Perfect raw in salads, or wilted straight into sauces, curries and soups at the last minute.
Country of origin
Produced in- The UK
UK Seasonality
Wilt in a hot pan with a bit of butter, then mix in grated nutmeg, a scrunch of seasoning and a good squeeze of lemon
Taste
Mild, clean and tender with a beautifully delicate earthy flavour.
How to prepare
Baby spinach is delicious raw tossed into a mixed green leaf salad. If cooking, blanch in a pan of boiling water for 1 min, drain, refresh in a bowl of cold water, drain again and then chop finely. Or wilt directly into sauces, soups, pastas and curries at the end of cooking.
Storage
Keep in the salad drawer of your fridge but be careful not to crush the delicate leaves. Delivered from our farm, so wash before cooking.
