Korean Spinach Side Dish (Sigeumchi-namul) 

spinach, stems discarded (300 grams)

soy sauce

½ tbsp sesame oil

garlic cloves, finely minced

tbsp sesame seeds

salt

Cut the stems of the spinach off and rinse thoroughly. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and blanche the spinach for 40-60 seconds (until the stems are no longer tough). If using baby spinach, blanch for around 30-50 seconds.

Quickly drain the spinach into a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze out as much excess liquid from the spinach, then cut the ball of spinach in half.

Combine the rest of the ingredients together into a bowl and whisk until combined. Using your hands, mix the spinach with the prepared sauce.

Despite my advanced age, I started collecting, typing, and photographing my Korean recipes and putting them in a binder. Many banchan are quite easy to make and packed full of flavor and high in nutritional value. This spinach dish, along with at least 2 other banchan make for delicious lettuce wraps along with the perfect sauce. Thanks.
