Local Fresh Spinach

Spinach is a highly nutritious leafy green vegetable, rich in vitamins (K, A, C), minerals (iron, calcium, potassium), and antioxidants, known for its mild, slightly bitter taste that suits both raw salads and cooked dishes like soups, curries (saag paneer), or spanakopita, offering benefits for bone, heart, and eye health. It's a versatile ingredient, easily added to diets, though it reduces significantly when cooked, and benefits from thorough washing to remove grit.
