Jelisa, girl, this was GOOD! As I ate, I kept thinking of different ways to eat the sauce. It would be really good with eggrolls instead of Duck Sauce or plain soy sauce. Or those Pan Fried dumplings. Or as a marinade for chicken. The possiblities are endless! I even thought about adding a little bit of minced ginger, YUM! Thanks for posting this. My tummy is full and my mind is working overtime!

Excellent, DH said it was exactly like what he had in Korea. I steamed the spinach instead of blanching it, less water to squeeze out.

Combining some of my favorite ingredients ( sesame oil, seeds and fresh spinach), I thhink this is delicious and easy. I didn't weigh the spinach from our garden, just used a three quart saucepan, stuffed with spinach leaves and it worked great. After rinsing, I drained the leaves in a colander, smashing them down tightly with a masher and they drained well.

Delicious. For some odd reason I wasn't in the mood for garlic, so I left it out. I'll be making this again: its quick and easy, and just a great summer dish. I like that it's not served hot. There was a LOT of sauce. After the spinach sat in it for a little while, I fished it out before I served it.

Jelisa, this was soooo delicious! I used the ready-to-go spinach in the bag. It took about 2 minutes or less to turn bright green. I forgot about the rinsing with cold water part, but I had everything else ready to go and mixed it up. Since my spinach was still hot, I used a clean kitchen towel and rung out the water that way (a trick I saw from Mario B.). We had Korean night here and served this with your other recipes on zaar: Spicy Cucumbers #30457, Spicy Pepper Steak #33347, Spicy Korean Chicken #29615, and rice. We are happy campers!

Excellent spinach recipe - I served it to a spinach hater and although it did not turn her around I loved it. I cooked the spinach in a skillet leaving only the water on the leaves after washing it and shaking them,no oil or additional water,covered the pan, heat on medium and in about 3 minutes it was heated through and the leaves were wilted.Poured on the dressing, let that heat for a minute, served and then sprinkled on the seeds Thanks ~Jelisa~

This is great. I don't think that you can go wrong with the combination of soy, sesame and garlic. We do make one small change - instead of black pepper we use red pepper flakes.

Jelisa, this is one of my new favorite recipes on Zaar! This is fabulous! It was so quick to make, and the flavor is out of this world. I can't wait to make your mom's noodles and try it with sushi, and with bulgogi, and by itself! I served with white rice and was in heaven for dinner. Thank you so much!

pretty good. next time though i'm going to lessen the soy sauce a little bit. It was a little salty for me. This is a great alternative way to serve spinach. Thanks for sharing!
