Sauteed Spinach with Pine Nuts and Golden Raisins
Based on The Boston Globe, 2005 April 6
Serves 8.
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
- 2 pounds fresh spinach, stemmed, rinsed, and dried
- Coarse sea salt, to taste
- 1/4 cup pine nuts
- 1/3 cup golden raisins
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat for 5 seconds. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds.
Add the spinach and sea salt. Using tongs, keep turning the spinach over to coat it with oil. After 1 minute, add the nuts and raisins. Stir until the spinach wilts. Transfer to a platter to serve.
Notes: Haven't tried it yet.
What's more, there was rain in my collar and I needed a sandwich. The clouds
were still bunched up in the sky like a gang on a street corner, and it looked
to me like they had the sun pretty effectively intimidated.
