Oshitashi - Boiled Spinach with Soy and Sesame Seeds Ingredients
- 1 bag pre-washed spinach
- 1 tsp. sesame oil
- 1 tsp. sesame seeds
- 1 tsp. soy sauce
Step 1
Bring a pot or large pan of water to boil, with a little salt added.
Add spinach to boiling water and cook for a minute.
Step 2
Take the spinach out as soon as it starts to wilt a little (don't wait until it's completely wilted). Shock it in a bowl of cold water and ice (this stops it from cooking).
Step 3
Remove the spinach from ice water and squeeze out as much water as you can without pressing too hard on the spinach. You'll end up with a ball about the size of your hand.

Put the spinach in a bowl and add soy, sesame seeds and sesame oil. Mix well and serve your Oshitashi!
