Tips
1 I'm using Taiwanese spinach in this recipe. I like to keep the roots because they taste sweet. However, if you cannot find Taiwanese spinach, regular mature spinach will also work.
2 Blanching the spinach helps reducing oxalate and stringy taste. Blanching also shrinks the volume of the spinach significantly so that it's easier to eat more vegetables. In this recipe, 1 serving is equivalent to about 10 cups of raw spinach.
