🇰🇷 Korean

Spinach Namul is a simple, bright Korean side dish of blanched spinach dressed with sesame, soy, and a hint of garlic. It’s quick to prepare and delivers a tender, flavorful bite that works beautifully alongside rice, grilled proteins, or as part of a banchan spread. The nutty sesame and savory soy balance the fresh greens for an irresistible, homey accompaniment.

Method

1

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and season generously with Kosher Salt. Add the Spinach in batches and blanch for 30–60 seconds, until bright green and just wilted.

2

Immediately transfer the spinach to an ice bath to stop the cooking, then drain well and squeeze out as much water as possible. Loosely chop the cooled spinach if desired.

3

While the spinach cools, finely mince the Garlic and thinly slice the Spring Onion, separating the white and green parts.

4

Place the drained spinach in a mixing bowl and drizzle with Soy Sauce and Toasted Sesame Oil. Add a small pinch of Fine Salt and toss gently to combine so the leaves are evenly coated.

5

Stir in the minced garlic and most of the sliced spring onion (reserve some green for garnish). Taste and adjust seasoning with a touch more soy or salt if needed.

6

Transfer to a serving dish and finish with a sprinkle of Toasted Sesame Seeds and the reserved spring onion greens. Serve at room temperature or chilled as part of your meal.
