Description

This type of spinach is identified by its dark green, slightly oblong, spade leaf shape with a faintly bitter flavor. The plant is naturally rich in vitamins A and C, folate, calcium, and iron, These tender baby leaves have a slightly bolder taste than larger, mature spinach. They are delightful used in a salad or added to many cooked dishes. Toss with warm dressing, or sauté with olive oil to release even more flavor. Its zesty finish goes especially well with garlic flavors.
