Grower
Baby Spoon spinach is bright green with gently rounded leaves like that of the bowl of a spoon, hence the name. The chewy texture of the young leaves is crisp yet succulent. Sweeter than mature spinach, Baby Spoon spinach offers a delicate nuttiness with subtle flavor and tender, edible stems.
Baby Spoon Spinach is available year-round.
Baby spoon spinach, botanically known as Spinacia oleracea, is simply the immature leaves of flat leaf spinach. It is the preferred variety found in packaged salad mixes because of its sturdy nature yet delicate texture.
Rich in vitamins and minerals, spinach is an excellent source of iron and is exceptionally high in beta carotene, vitamin C, fiber and folic acid
Baby spinach is more delicate that mature spinach and is most often eaten raw in salad preparations. Pair with fresh citrus and berries, nuts, strong cheeses, spring vegetables such as peas and asparagus, or toss with hot past or grains until barely wilted. Baby spinach has a more mild, less metallic flavor than mature spinach and is complimented by vinaigrettes, fresh herbs, garlic, toasted bread and beans. Keep baby spinach cool and dry until ready to use.
During the Renaissance, Catherine de Medici of Florence Italy, was wed to the king of France and bringing along her favorite vegetable, spinach, popularized the dish style that became known as "a la Florentine."
Spinach is a native to Persia, and today it is still found growing wild in modern day Iran. The domestic cultivation of Spinach goes back over two millennia when it was first brought to China in 647 BC. Trade routes are most likely to thank for its European introduction, when the Sicilians imported Spinach sometime during the ninth century. It later spread to Spain and England and was known by a plethora of aliases such as spinech, spinage, spinnedge, or even spynoches. Spinach thrives in cool temperatures and sandy soil with conservative watering.
