Spinach with Sesame is a vibrant, nutrient-packed side dish popular in Asian cuisine, particularly Japanese and Korean. This simple recipe combines fresh spinach, lightly blanched to retain its vivid green color, with a flavorful sesame dressing made of toasted sesame seeds, soy sauce, and a touch of sweetness. Often enhanced with a splash of sesame oil, the dish delivers a nutty aroma and rich taste. Spinach, the star ingredient, is loaded with vitamins A, C, and K, iron, and antioxidants, supporting immune health, bone strength, and anti-inflammatory benefits. Sesame seeds contribute healthy fats, protein, and minerals like calcium and magnesium. Low in calories yet rich in nutrients, this dish is an excellent choice for a balanced diet. While sesame adds healthy fats, certain variations may include sodium-rich soy sauce, which should be monitored for those watching their salt intake.
