Ingredients & Preparation
Have your ingredients pre-measured and prepped before the class for a more seamless experience.
If you do not have certain ingredients, our chefs will do their best to suggest substitutions.
Before coming to class:
Precook the spinach. Boil enough water to cover the spinach and add a pinch of salt. Boil for 7-8 minutes or until fully cooked. Drain completely and let cool for 10-12 minutes. Be sure to completely squeeze out all the water in the spinach before using.
