Step-by-Step Instructions for Creamed Spinach
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add baby spinach and submerge for about 30 seconds until wilted. Transfer to a colander.
- Rinse the blanched spinach under cold water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze out excess moisture and set aside.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until translucent. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute.
- Lower heat and whisk in heavy cream until warm. Add cream cheese and Parmesan, stirring until smooth and creamy.
- Incorporate spinach into the creamy mixture, season with pepper and nutmeg. Heat gently for 2-3 more minutes until well-coated and warmed through.
- Transfer the creamed spinach to a serving dish and enjoy warm.

Notes
For best results, avoid over-squeezing the spinach and use fresh cheese for a richer flavor. Feel free to adapt ingredients based on availability.
