Salad or flat-leaf Spinach is identified by its dark green, slightly oblong, spade leaf shape. Spinach leaves are tender, with a faintly bitter flavor. The plant is naturally rich in vitamins A and C, folate, calcium, and iron, which lead many people to regard this veggie as a valuable addition to any diet. Spinach can even be eaten raw, making it a versatile addition to any dish be it salad, pasta, sandwiches… you name it, and spinach will be a good fit for it.
