Japanese Spinach Salad - Gomae

Gomae is one of my very very favorite Japanese dishes  - and it's easy to make at home! 

We had a meat and cheese and bread dinner one night and I added some Gomae at the last minute because we had a bag of spinach in the fridge.

Never forget how much spinach wilts down when you cook it.  Thank goodness the kids didn't want to eat any of it so there was enough for the adults.



I thought I would make this again and again over the summer but alas I did not.  So this fall and winter will be my season of Gomae, maybe.  It's quick and easy and lasts for a couple of days in the fridge so it would be a good lunch addition.  Just remember to squeeze the spinach as dry as you can get it - make room for that delicious dressing.
