Cream Spinach Recipe?
Posted on 6/11/20 at 2:29 pm

Dropping Back strap and tenderloins in the sous vide shortly. Then will sear in cast iron. Would like a nice cream spinach recipe to pair it with. Anyone?

couple packs of frozen spinach, boiled in salt water and drained.
1/2 stick butter and half cup of flour to make a blonde roux.
Whisk in heavy cream.
Mix in with spinach until you get your preferred consistency.
Add/top with cheese if you like.
Adding nutmeg is a game changer imo.
ETA: that’s off the top of my head, I’ve got a written recipe somewhere

That’s pretty much how I do it. I like a pinch of ground clove in there.

I prefer nutmeg to clove.

It's probably nutmeg which is very common to this.

What Cablewood said.
If you have it, a grind or so of nutmeg is also nice.

I totally abolished garlic and most onions from my kitchen years ago.
This is the one for me.
Thanks!

Thanks to all posting on this thread. Creamed spinach is a dish that I love, but so often forget about

Gosh, I hope it was for a medically necessary reason.
I dunno how to cook savory food without garlic, onion, and all of the onion cousins (shallots, green onions, leeks, ramps, etc)

What restaurants near Baton Rouge area serve this as a side? I’m realizing now how rare this is.

I've not seen spinach madeleine as a side in a restaurant, but a place like Bergeron's City Market may sell it in their prepared foods section.
Most steakhouses will served creamed spinach as a side. Ruth's Chris serves it and it's excellent.

You can also get it au gratin style at Ruth’s where they top it with cheese and bake. Very good.

I agree. I love either of those spinach sides and a side of sweet potato casserole, among other sides, but those are my favorites.
