STEP 1/11
Remove the bottom and the leaves of the spinach and wash it in running water
STEP 2/11
Add 1t of salt to boil in water until spinach is slightly submerged
STEP 3/11
When the salt water starts to boil, add spinach and blanch it. Just a little bit! 30 seconds? If you blanch spinach in salt water, the color of spinach doesn't change
STEP 4/11
Cool slightly blanched spinach in cold water
STEP 5/11
Squeeze the cooled spinach and prepare it in a bowl
STEP 6/11
I just need to season it! Add 0.5T of minced garlic
STEP 7/11
I used Joseon soy sauce to make it taste better If you mix it with Korean soy sauce, it tastes deeper I added 4T of soy sauce Add a spoon or two of the soy sauce and add it as you taste it. If it's too salty, it doesn't matter
STEP 8/11
I added 1T of perilla oil It doesn't matter if you add sesame oil
STEP 9/11
Lastly, to make the seasoned spinach more savory, I ground sesame seeds into a mini bowl If you go to a famous pork cutlet restaurant, they give you sesame seeds with a bowl to mix them with sauce, right? That's how you grind the sesame seeds. You can do as much as you want, but I added 1T If you don't have a bowl to grind sesame seeds, you can rub it with your palm
STEP 10/11
Sprinkle well-ground sesame seeds on spinach and season again
STEP 11/11
Spinach itself is so sweet that it's so delicious! It's really savory with ground sesame seeds. It tastes salty and deep with soy sauce from Joseon soy sauce
