Spinach With Sesame Miso Sauce



Freshly blanched spinach dressed in a nutty and savory sesame miso sauce, this flavorful vegetable side dish is one that goes well (nearly) with every meal! Plus, it’s so simple to make. Eating greens cannot be any easier!

Since introduced in 2011, my Japanese Spinach Salad with Sesame Dressing has been one of the top side dishes that everyone seems to enjoy.
Today, I thought I’d introduce you a slightly different variation, Spinach with Sesame Miso Sauce (ほうれん草の胡麻味噌和え). Both are versatile, not too heavy or rich, and full of bright flavors. You can now alternate these two vegetable side dishes to accompany the delicious meal you are cooking!

Easy & Delicious Sesame Miso Sauce (Goma Miso Ae)You’ve probably seen the combination of ground sesame seeds and miso a lot in Japanese cooking, and the term we use for this combination is “goma miso” – sesame miso.
They go really well hand in hand, and so as this simple dressing for the spinach. Miso imparts a savory taste and depth to the sauce, giving the vegetables a serious boost. When your main dish is on a lighter flavor, you can make this dish instead of the regular sesame sauce.
All you need is simple 5 condiments and spinach to make a memorable weeknight side dish. When you get fresh spinach from the market, definitely try this recipe!

Nikiri – Sake and Mirin Used in Non-Cooked FoodWhen mirin or sake is used in a recipe that is not required to be cooked, you may be worried about alcohol content for your children.
In that case, we cook the sake or mirin in a small saucepan and let it burn off the alcohol until there is no trace of alcohol scent. Let boil for 1.5 minutes for 1/2 cup, roughly 10 seconds for 1 Tablespoon of mirin or sake. You could check by waving the steam toward your nose to see if you can still smell the alcohol.
You don’t have to do this if you are not worried about alcohol in your food. However, I still recommend this quick step since the flavors of some the ingredients can be very subtle, and you don’t want the strong alcohol to interfere with your dishes.
If you’re curious about this specific cooking term in Japanese, this process of boiling sake/mirin down is called Nikiri (煮切り) in Japanese. The mirin that’s been boiled down is called Nikiri Mirin (煮切りみりん). It is particularly used for dressing vegetables.
A Healthy Vegetable Side Dish For Weeknight DinnersAs a home cook, I believe we all need some good tried and true vegetable side dishes that round up our weeknight dinners. While it’s important that the whole family enjoys the side dishes, I always make sure they are also healthy. And this Spinach with Sesame Miso Sauce is exactly what you’d need for a side dish! It is chock full of nutrients and not lack of flavors. The best part is it pairs well with just about anything you’re serving. Did I mention that it keeps well in the refrigerator for 2-3 days too?

Spinach with Sesame Miso Sauce

Freshly blanched spinach dressed in a nutty and savory sesame miso sauce, this flavorful vegetable side dish is one that goes well (nearly) with every meal! Plus, it's so simple to make. Eating greens cannot be any easier!
¼ tsp salt (kosher or sea salt; use half if using table salt)5-6 oz spinach ((140-170 g))Sesame Miso Sauce1 Tbsp mirin2 Tbsp white sesame seeds (roasted/toasted)2 tsp miso ((I used Hikari Miso® Organic Koji Miso))1 tsp sugar½ tsp soy sauceGather all the ingredients. Bring a big pot of water to a boil. [Optional] If your sesame seeds are not toasted/roasted yet, or if you want more toasty taste/fragrance, put sesame seeds in a frying pan and toast them on low heat. When 2-3 sesame seeds start to pop from the pan, remove from the heat.

While waiting for the water to boil, add 1 Tbsp mirin in a small saucepan. Cook it over medium heat until the alcohol is evaporated, roughly 30 seconds. Set aside.

In a suribachi (mortar), add 2 Tbsp sesame seeds and grind with a surikogi (pestle) until sesame seeds are almost ground. It’s nice to leave some texture.

Ad 2 tsp miso, 1 tsp sugar, alcohol-free mirin, and ½ tsp soy sauce and mix well together.
Once water is boiling, add the salt. Hold the spinach leaves so you can start blanching from the stem (which takes longer to cook). Cook for 15 seconds. Let go the leafy part and cook for 30 seconds.

Remove spinach from the water and soak in iced water to stop the cooking. Alternatively, drain and run the spinach under cold running water until cool.

Collect the spinach and squeeze water out.
Cut the spinach into 2” (5cm) lengths and add to the bowl.

Mix the spinach and sauce together. Serve at room temperature or chilled. You can keep in the refrigerator for 2-3 days or freezer for 2-4 weeks.
