NOTES
1. Spinach
Preferably use fresh spinach. Looking at the recipe, you might think it won't all fit in the pan, but fresh spinach shrinks a lot. Add some to the pot, let it shrink, and then shake in more. You can also use chard or frozen spinach if you don't have fresh spinach.
2. Onion: You can replace the onion with a finely chopped shallot. This gives the soup a kick.
3. Vegetable stock: Make your own vegetable stock with this easy recipe. Or use a vegan vegetable stock cube.
4. Potato: Use a floury potato for this recipe. Russet, Doré, King Edward, and Maris Piper are great choices.
5. Serve with
- Delicious with crusty bread, like ciabatta, or baguette.
- Add olive oil to the soup for more flavor. (Vegan) feta cubes are also delicious in this soup for an extra bite.
- Don't: It's not a good idea to reheat spinach twice. So eat this soup right away.
