How To Freeze Spinach (The EASY Way!)
If you want to learn how to freeze spinach (without blanching), you've come to the right place... Yep, you CAN freeze fresh spinach leaves!
Servings: 3 .5 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (10-ounce) bag fresh spinach
Instructions
- Pick out and discard any rotten spinach leaves. For spinach that’s been freshly picked from the garden or purchased at a farmer’s market, rinse and dry it well using a salad spinner or by gently blotting it with paper towels. This step can be skipped if using triple-washed bags or clamshells from the grocery store.
- Freezing Whole Spinach Leaves:Place the fresh spinach leaves in a Ziploc freezer storage bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible and place the bag in the freezer.
- Freezing Pureed Spinach:Add the spinach to a blender, along with just enough water to get the blender going. For ease of use, freeze the puree in small portions using a silicone mold or ice cube tray.
Recipe Notes
Storage: For best quality, frozen spinach leaves should be used within 6 months. Frozen spinach puree can be stored in the freezer for up to 3-4 months.
