Ingredients:

Serving

8 large spinach , crowns (save and use leaves for another recipe) or 16 small crowns from whole bunched ( save and use leaves for another recipe)
4 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp sake ( substitutes -- vermouth , dry white wine , gin , etc.)

Directions:

Important: *Be sure to rinse the spinach crowns well* to remove all traces of sand/grit/dirt.
Combine the tahini, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sake in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
Have a strainer and a bowl of ice water handy.
Bring a medium-sized pot of salted water to a simmer and add crowns. Blanch the crowns for a minute or two. They should be bright green and cooked, but still crisp.
Remove them from the heat, strain, and immediately plunge into the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain very well again.
Place spinach crowns in a bowl and drizzle with the sauce (there may be some leftover.).
Serve at room temperature.
