About our tender 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.

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.
