Ingredients
- 3/4 pound fresh spinach (10 0z bag)
- 4 tbs. White sesame seed
- 2 tbs. Sugar (use more or less to taste)
- 2 tablespoons miram or Sake
- 2 1/2 tbs. Kikkoman soy sauce
Directions
Remove stems, fill up sink with cool water, wash spinach well and pat dry. Bring a large pot of salted water to boiling.
Cook spinach for about one minute and plunge into an ice bath to stop the cooking and to preserve the nutrition and color.
Put the spinach in a paper towel and squeeze out excess water with fist. Chop coarsely, and set aside. Dry roast sesame seeds in dry frying pan over high heat for 60 seconds, moving pan continually in a circle while toasting. They should be a golden brown or you can buy them toasted already.
Grind seeds well while still warm. I use my food processor. Add sugar, soy, miram and grind until mixture is pasty.
Now in a bowl add a couple teaspoons of the dressing to the spinach and mix adjusting your amount to taste.
Plate in traditional way or make it a little more interesting by getting a piece of nori wet with a paper towel, sprinkling sesame seeds on top and using a blow torch dry it out until its crispy again and plate as I’ve shown you.
Healthy, delicious and you should try this!
