What the AI looks for in Frozen Spinach & Greens
- Block vs loose bag
- Chopped spinach blocks suit dips and fillings. Loose-pack bags let you take out portions for smoothies. A block has to be thawed whole, while loose pieces can be portioned.
- Water content
- Thaw and squeeze out the water before using in dips, quiches or fillings. Leftover water dilutes dishes and makes baked fillings soggy.
- Type of green
- Spinach is mild and cooks fast. Kale, collards and turnip greens are sturdier and need longer cooking. Greens are not interchangeable in cooking time or flavor.
Brands that matter
- Earthbound Farm: Organic spinach and kale.
- Birds Eye: Mainstream chopped spinach.
- Pictsweet Farms: Collards, turnip and mustard greens.
What to avoid
- Skipping the squeeze-dry step in dips and fillings
