Here is a recipe for this week.

Spinach with Toasted Sesame Seeds

Ingredients:

1 bunch of spinach (11-12 oz), trimmed and washed

¼ cup toasted sesame seeds

2 tablespoon mirin (sweetened rice wine)

2 tablespoon light soy sauce

1 tablespoon sugar
Directions:

Blanching Spinach:

In a large saucepan, bring water to boil. Get a bowl of iced water and set it aside.
Add spinach to boiling water for 15-20 seconds (do not overcook the spinach!). Using tong or spider, scoop out all the spinach and drop them in the prepared bowl of iced water. Note: if using a smaller pot, blanch half of the spinach at a time. Wait until the water boils again and blanch the other half.
Squeeze water out of the spinach and cut them into one-inch length.
Making Sauce:

Grind sesame seeds in a Japanese style mortar and pestle. Add sugar and grind for another couple of minutes until it almost resembles a paste.
Add mirin, light soy sauce, and mix well, scraping side with a rubber spatula. Note: never use metal on Suribachi as it will scratch the grids in the bowl.
Squeeze excess water one more time and using chopsticks, loosen the leaves. Add three-quarters of the sauce to the spinach and toss well. Taste and add more sauce if needed. Sprinkle sesame seeds and serve immediately.
