How to cook frozen spinach: basic recipes. Dishes from frozen spinach. What to combine and how to cook?

Eating fresh spinach is the best way to get all the beneficial substances found in spinach leaves. Although iron and folic acid in spinach are better absorbed in heat-treated spinach. How to find that golden mean, at which the maximum of nutrients of spinach is preserved, how to cook spinach correctly, I will tell in this article.

How to cook spinach

Most know that spinach is very. But how to cook it do not know. Let us examine the different methods of cooking spinach.

Cooking spinach can be steamed, stewed, fried. Boil and stew spinach in a small amount of water on the stove, microwave. When stewing in a slow cooker, spinach is placed at the very end of cooking.

A few minutes of steaming spinach or stewing is enough to make it tender. Usually cooked or stewed for 5-7 minutes.

Longer cooking spinach destroys oxalic acid contained in spinach. And, as you know, oxalic acid prevents the better absorption of iron in the body. Therefore, when eating spinach in people with low hemoglobin levels, it is necessary to cook spinach a little longer.

When cooked, vitamin C is reduced or completely destroyed. Fresh spinach contains 28.1 mg of vitamin C per 100 grams. When stewing spinach, the content of vitamin C is reduced to 9.8 mg.

Vitamin C refers to water-soluble vitamins. When cooking spinach in large amounts of water, some of the vitamin C is lost in water. Other spinach vitamins are also dissolved in water: folic acid, group B vitamins.

To increase the content of vitamin C in the ready dish with spinach, add a little lemon juice.

How to Roast Spinach

Roasted spinach - nutritious and healthy food. When spinach is roasted, fat-soluble vitamins A and K are better absorbed.

Although during frying, some nutrients are also lost, but it is easier to eat spinach in fresh form than fresh to get the same amount of vitamins and minerals.

Roasted spinach has a higher iron content. 1.5 cups of fried spinach contains 9.64 mg of iron. When as in 300 grams of fresh spinach, only about 8 mg.

Fried iron is absorbed much better than fresh. This is explained by the destruction of oxalic acid, which prevents the absorption of iron.

How to cook spinach

Sort out the fresh spinach leaves. Throw away all faded and spoiled leaves. Place the leaves in a colander and rinse them in cold running water, gently shaking the colander to rinse the leaves well and rinse off all the garbage.

Take the amount of spinach that you want to get cooked. From one cup of fresh spinach, about 1/3 cup of boiled or fried spinach is obtained.

Put the spinach leaves in a saucepan. Add a little olive oil (this will allow better absorption of fat-soluble vitamins) or a little water if you extinguish. You can also add a little water when frying spinach. This will not stick and burn spinach.

When cooking spinach need to constantly stir the leaves. Spinach is ready if the leaves change their color to dark green.

When cooking spinach soup or meat with spinach, it should be added at the very end of cooking.

How to store spinach

Fresh spinach leaves have more nutrients. Over time, nutrients are lost. After 8 days of storage, spinach loses about half of the folic acid and carotenoids found in spinach.

Spinach shelf life is no more than two weeks.

The leaves of spinach grown in the greenhouse are much less nutrients than grown in the garden.

There are many vitamins in it - in particular, provitamin A, useful for sight, vitamins of group B, and also C, PP, D and some others.
In addition to vitamins, there is a lot of iron in the leaves - that is why they have a dark saturated color, as well as mineral salts.
Surprisingly, this one is a real champion in calcium content - 100 grams of leaves contain about 150 mg of calcium (more than a glass of yogurt!).
The leaves also contain iodine, which has a beneficial effect on the thyroid gland, adds energy and prevents premature aging of the body.
An important component of spinach - protein, which is why the leaves are nourishing and nutritious. The squirrel here is almost the same as in the beans and peas.

Young leaves are good to eat raw, and larger and darker ones - stew, fry, boil, make a side dish, prepare other recipes.

When choosing this healthy vegetable, pay attention to the stem - it should be light in color, elastic and juicy - this means that the vegetable is cut recently. By the way, frozen leaves are no worse than fresh ones, and you can stock up on them for the winter.

The first spinach crop grew in the garden. I collected it yesterday full tank. I usually do not keep him long on the bed. He quickly goes into the arrow, and his leaves in this case are no longer so juicy. Therefore, I immediately collect the entire crop. And on the vacant space immediately sow new spinach seeds. It grows quickly, and over the summer in this way you can collect 3-4 harvests.

Since there is a lot of harvested spinach, I cook it for 2-3 days to the maximum. And soups, and salads, and pies. I freeze the remains in order not to feel need in it in the winter. And in the winter, everyone is happy with various “snacks”, in the form of a Greek pie, or the usual

Today I decided to cook a tasty and quick three-course dinner out of spinach. Cream soup, salad and dessert. I plan to manage in an hour or a little less. Yes, yes, all three dishes, it is during this time. Everything that can be cooked from spinach is cooked very, very quickly. And this is his huge plus!

And so proceed to cooking. We will cook everything in parallel. It is necessary to keep within the allotted time. I advise you to first carefully read all three recipes, and while it is fried, one is boiled, you can wash something, clean it, cut it from the other. Then just have time. Let's start with the soup, make it the longest.

Step-by-step recipe for fresh spinach puree soup

We need (for 4 servings):

spinach -3 handfuls
onion - 1 pc
potato -2 pieces
carrots -1 pc
vegetable oil - 3-4 tbsp. spoons
salt -0.5 st. spoons
boiled egg -2-3 pc. - for submission
sour cream - to serve

Cooking:

1. Go through and thoroughly wash the spinach. Remove all faded leaves and leaves with brown dots. Trim the roots, if any. Rinse it thoroughly under running water in a colander. Put on a towel to glass all the water.

3. Put on the gas pot with water. Water for a given amount of ingredients will need 1, 250 liters.

2. Peel and cut the potatoes into small blocks. Potatoes take two large tubers.

3. Peel the medium carrots and cut them into small cubes.

4. Put the potatoes and carrots in the water. Bring to a boil, add 0.5 tbsp. spoons of salt. Try the broth. If salt is not enough, then salt to your taste.

5. Cook until cooked. Ready-made potatoes and carrots should not be tough and should not get too hot. “Golden mean” is what is needed.

6. When the vegetables are set to boil, let's go onions. Cut it into cubes and then fry in vegetable oil until slightly golden. Then add 1/3 of a glass of boiled water so that the onions are slightly extinguished and become transparent.

7. Then put the spinach in the pan, reduce the fire to the minimum, and slightly “sprinkle” it with the lid closed. 1 minute is enough. Then open the lid, stir. Turn off the gas and leave the spinach with onions until the vegetables are cooked.

8. When the vegetables are cooked, pour the broth into a separate pan. Place vegetables in a blender and sprinkle them in parts. If the blender is struggling, add a little broth.

9. Put the finished puree in a separate pan. In this way, not only vegetables are sputtered, but also spinach with onions.

10. Stir mashed potatoes and add broth as much as you would like to get your soup. I completely gone all the broth. The soup turned out to be of medium consistency, not thick — not liquid. In my opinion, just what is necessary.

11. Put the pot back on the gas and bring the water to a boil. As the boil, immediately turn off. In order for spinach to preserve all its nutrients and vitamins, heat treatment should be minimized.

12. Serve hot with sour cream, you can not regret it, and with pre-cooked and chopped, as you like egg. That turned out to be a “spinach smile”. Not very funny, but delicious!

The cream soup prepared in this way is obtained in a hearty, nutritious, slightly sour taste, with a taste and aroma of freshness and a warm summer day. Feel free to recommend to everyone! The result is 100%! And if you do not like it, then, as they say in the advertisement “We will return your money,” well, or give it to spinach!

This recipe is good because it is as simple as possible and surprisingly tasty, given its simplicity. Although in addition to this recipe, there are various cooking options. Suddenly you want to cook another soup out of spinach, here are the recommendations.

Variants and features of cooking spinach soup

of course, any soup-puree can be cooked with cream. If you decide to cook with them, then add them at the last stage, when the ready soup is brought to a boil. Cream, as well as spinach boil is not worth it. How to prepare cream mashed potatoes can be viewed

the next cooking option is cream soup with melted cheese. If you cook with it, do not combine vegetable mash with spinach in advance. After the vegetables have been spayed, add the broth and bring to a boil. Cheese, slightly frosting, grate and add in mashed potatoes. How to do it correctly, described in detail. When the cheese completely disperses, add the spinach sauce and as soon as it boils, immediately turn off the gas.

very tasty in soups, add a little any ground nuts. It turns out very tasty and juicy! If there are no nuts, then you can add a little chopped nutmeg. Exquisite flavor of this soup is provided!
cooked soups, mashed potatoes with spinach, adding other herbs, such as sorrel and nettles. This soup is just a storehouse of vitamins!
you can cook spinach soup in a pre-cooked vegetable broth. First, boil the vegetable broth, then additionally added to the already prepared base. Honestly, I do not see much point in this. In our case, we also use vegetable broth. And it is enough for the taste.
to enhance the taste and aroma, you can add 50 grams of butter to the soup
and of course the puree soup can be cooked not only from fresh spinach, but also from frozen.
i remind you that usually soups - mashed potatoes are prepared at once. This is a recommendation. But not always everything is eaten immediately, sometimes it remains a little. So I can safely say that the second time the soup does not lose its taste, its appearance also does not suffer. Maybe vitamins of course are destroyed during storage, I can not check this. In general, if there is some soup left, do not pour it out. It is tasty and can be eaten!
for soups - mashed potatoes are often prepared toast. You can cook them for this soup. If you follow the links provided above, there is a recipe for how to make garlic croutons - delicious!

And so the soup is ready. While it was boiling, I had a lot of free time for cooking salad. Therefore, both the soup and the salad are ready. It took only 40-45 minutes from the allotted time.

Spinach and Canned Fish Salad

I usually like to do this salad with tuna. I always have it in stock. But yesterday she missed, and the tuna is over! Rather, it remained special for salads, but there it is very small, and for this salad you need bigger pieces. From such a tuna is good to do, or other similar.

Well, okay! But there is saury. By the way, such a salad has not yet tried cooking with her, and at the same time we will try. Well, if you are a staunch vegetarian and don't eat fish either, then just exclude it from the composition of the products, and this option is as tasty as with fish.

We will need:

spinach - 1.5 - 2 handfuls
tomato -1 pc.
cucumber - 1-2 pcs.
bulgarian pepper - 1/2 pcs.
canned fish - 1 can (saury or tuna)
lemon - 1/2 pcs.
salt - to taste

Cooking:

1. The washed, peeled and dried spinach we assort on leaflets. We spread the leaves of the same size around the perimeter of the salad bowl.

2. Then lay out the remaining spinach. As much as you need salad by volume. 1.5 handfuls of spinach are about 4-5 medium servings.

3. Cut the cucumber into halves. I have small cucumbers, so I will cut 2 of them. And lay them out in the next layer. Slightly salt.

4. The next layer lay out sliced tomato. There are no special rules for cutting, you can cut as you like. The only pieces should not be very small. Tomatoes also salt.

5. Pour the liquid from the canned fish into a separate bowl. With the help of a fork or knife, we divide whole pieces into pieces of approximately the same size. And lay them on top of the tomatoes.

6. Sprinkle the entire surface of the salad with lemon juice. I squeeze the juice of half a lemon right above the salad.

7. Then, also pour the salad evenly with the drained juice from the fish.

8. We spread the Bulgarian pepper, cut into strips and decorate with small leaves of spinach.

9. We do not mix the salad, but leave it for 10 minutes so that all the layers have time to soak in lemon juice and fish juice.

10. Put the finished salad in layers in a serving plate in random order, trying to get all the ingredients along with the juice in the plate. It is better not to mix the salad at all, so as not to damage the spinach leaves.

Salad turned out no worse than tuna. A little olive oil is added to the tuna salad, since the tuna itself doesn’t have that much satiety, like the same saury. Lemon juice combines vegetables, spinach and fish in the best way possible. Nothing seems superfluous in this salad. The taste is completely balanced.

Since spinach is used fresh in a salad, it retains all its beneficial properties and vitamins. Useful vitamins from cucumbers and tomatoes, healthy fish fats and a complex of vitamins with vitamin C, led by lemon juice! That is, the salad we have turned out not just delicious, but also very useful. Be sure to try! The taste is just super!

Well, what about lunch without dessert? Especially since we have spinach. And from it, and fruit, you can cook just a divine dessert, consisting only of some useful vitamins! I don’t know if there are more of them somewhere else. And so, prepare a dessert! We will need only 5 minutes to prepare it!

Spinach and Fruit Smoothies - A Storehouse of Vitamins

We will need:

spinach -1 handful
bananas - 2 pcs.
pear - 1 pc.
apple - 1 pc.
orange - 1 pc.
ice cream (optional)

Cooking:

1. Put spinach leaves in the blender bowl, cut banana and pear into slices. Spur half.

2. The place in the bowl is free and you can add an apple to the same place. If his skin is rough, then it can be cleaned in advance. Spray all ingredients until smooth.

3. Wash the orange, dry with a paper towel and cut into two halves. In order not to wash the juicer afterwards, directly with hands, squeeze the juice out of it into separate dishes.

4. Mashed potatoes turned out to be very thick, so we add orange juice to it. And once again break through all the blender.

5. Pour all the glasses. From this number of products, 3 large glasses are obtained. Drink or eat with spoons, and enjoy!

6. Optionally, you can add ice cream on top! This is for sweet tooth. The smoothie itself is not very sweet, it has different notes of taste and a pleasant aroma and texture. Sometimes they add some more milk. But not at this time!

Well, let's summarize! We have prepared a delicious soup - puree, and a vitamin salad with dessert. All had time, and we still have a little time to lay the table. We set up, invite everyone to the table, and delight with their delicious, delicious dishes of their own people, for whom they cooked!
