Make this easy spinach recipe for a delicious side dish.
I never get tired of eating spinach.
Good thing it’s so good for you!

I found the recipe years ago in Mark Bittman’s “The Best Recipes in the World.”
In typical Bittman style, the spinach is quick, easy, and good.
Updated, from the recipe archive.

This one has no scallions, while other versions do and the seasonings are slightly different.
Can Only Fresh Spinach Be Used?
Also, baby spinach does not need to be chopped.

Heat a stick-free skillet on medium-high.
Add raw sesame seeds and use a spatula or wooden spoon to stir.
The seeds may make a popping noise and jump up, almost like popcorn.
Remove from pan into a separate bowl as soon as they are done.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the garlic.
Turn the heat to low.
Stir in the sugar and soy sauce.
Remove from the heat.
Add salt to taste.
