Creamed Spinach
1/2 cup butter
1/4 all purpose flour
2 cups milk or half & half
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 clove garlic
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pound steamed fresh spinach
In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, add flour and
stir until light brown color appears, making a roux. Add onion and
seasoning and then whisk in milk, stirring until it boils and
thickens. Reduce heat and cook for five minutes. Strain liquid
through a fine strainer or cheese cloth and set aside.
Cook spinach in boiling water for one minute, remove and immediately
put in ice water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze until dry
and puree in a food processor or blender then set aside Before
serving, combine the sauce with the pureed spinach and cook on low
heat, stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to
taste if desired. Finish by stirring in one tablespoon of butter.
