4 servings
- 2 lb fresh baby spinach
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - 1 small yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups whole milk
Chef's tipUse the same amount of soy milk as regular milk. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in almost any recipe, including sauces, custards, and baked goods. In cold drinks or uncooked dishes you may notice a mild soy flavor. - ½ cup heavy cream
Chef's tipUse unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable. - ½ cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
Chef's tipChoose a vegan parmesan in the form the recipe uses - grated for sprinkling and sauces, a firm wedge for shaving or melting. - ¼ tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spinach in batches and blanch for 30 seconds, until fully wilted. Drain through a colander, then rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze the spinach firmly in your hands — working in small fistfuls — until as much water as possible is removed. Roughly chop the squeezed spinach and set aside.

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
