Baby Spinach, Organic
Spinach has a very high nutritional value especially when eaten fresh. A serving can supply up to 20% of the daily recommended amount of iron, vitamin A, C, K, magnesium, manganese and folate. We sauté a chopped onion or shallot in olive oil and then stir in Spinach leaves until wilted for a super quick side dish.
Root Down Farm
Root Down Farm is a family owned farm run by Steve and Erin Blabac located near the heart of Clarence Center. Started in the spring of 2011 to support 50 CSA shares, it has grown to serve 300 members and FreshFix customers! The farm consists of leased land throughout the town of Clarence; some of which is protected by the Western New York Land Conservancy.All of Root Down crops are grown without the use of conventional, synthetic or artificial fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. The farm grows many varieties of vegetables, using a careful rotation of crops to help mitigate pests and disease. The farm also strives to minimize its dependency on natural resources by converting a cultivating tractor to an electric motor and using drip irrigation.
Keep fresh spinach in open plastic bags in the refrigerator vegetable drawer. Plan to use within 5 days. Pre-washed spinach can be stored for up to 1 week in the refrigerator. Spinach must be blanched (cooked briefly) before freezing for best quality. Use frozen spinach within 10-12 months.
Wash spinach just before using. Storing wet spinach can speed spoilage. Fill a bowl with cold water and swish loose leaves around. Let leaves sit in the water to allow dirt to settle. Lift leaves from water. Drain and rinse bowl. Pat leaves dry if needed
Cooking Ideas
- Use fresh spinach in salads, sandwiches or wraps
- Add fresh or frozen spinach to soups, pasta, dips or smoothies
- Steam or sauté spinach as a quick side dish- sprinkle with vinegar or a touch of grated cheese
Spinach is an excellent source of vitamin A K. It is also a good source of folate and vitamin C. A half cup of cooked spinach is a good source of vitamin B6, riboflavin, calcium, iron and potassium!
