My kingdom for spinach that doesn’t turn to watery mush after three days!
It’s 2023! Get on it, science!
Gah.
If it’s going in something (e.g. dahl) I use the frozen stuff. If it’s to munch on raw or as leaves then I abandoned fresh spinach ages ago - Kale is much more robust and (IMO) tastes better.
@ukcasual Also if my bananas could stop getting those creepy black bits. Ta.
Chuck it in a frying pan, soon disappears
King of edible leaves, His Majesty, the Spinach.
What I do is keep it in the fridge, but sealed from air and moisture by paper towels, in plastic bags.
I used to do this in huge bins, when I lived in the states and would get several pounds of it in a bag at Costco and would shop but twice a month. It’s the only way to eat fresh greens on a budget, within that peculiar way of life.
@Gradually_Adjusting It’s already wrapped up in a bag and littered with paper towels but it’s basically like that scene in X-Men where the senator guy dissolves on the table 😭
Maybe it’s just a problem with Asda spinach. My frustration spilleth over this lunchtime.
It’s got to be dodgy spinach. I’ve had good quality baby spinach outlast a PM, stored properly.
@Gradually_Adjusting We were thinking of doing the rounds and trying to find a supermarket with better fruit than Asda. Will have to add spinach to the experiment and report back on my findings!
