To prepare H-E-B Baby Spinach, simply open the package and use the leaves as desired. For salads, toss them with your favorite dressing and other ingredients. If cooking, add the spinach to a hot pan with a little oil or butter and stir until just wilted, which happens very quickly.

How it differs from similar foods
Baby spinach differs from mature spinach in its tenderness and milder flavor. The leaves are much smaller and softer, lacking the sometimes slightly bitter or earthy notes found in larger, more mature spinach. This makes baby spinach ideal for raw applications where a delicate texture is preferred.
