Tahini Spinach
This is a quick side dish, or mini meal for people who like Middle Eastern flavors!

I thought this recipe was really good. The cayenne pepper adds a nice little bit of heat. I went back for seconds. Because the first review said it tasted too vinegary I added the red wine vinegar 1/2 Tbs at a time, but I'm pretty sure by the time I was done adding that it was pretty close to the called for amount and I didn't find it overpowering at all.

I made 2 small changes. I used fresh spinach instead of frozen which I sautéed in about 1 tbs EVO. The other was I started with 1/8 cup of red wine vinegar and added to taste. I probably used about 1/4 cup total. We enjoyed this it was a nice change of pace and I will make it again. Thank you!
Very tasty! I reduced the vinegar to 1/3 cup, and with 1/8t cayenne pepper, it was deliciously spicy and tangy without being overpowering.

This recipe had way too much vinegar in it. I would recommend using a different thinning agent -- maybe olive oil? -- for this... maybe with a little vinegar.
Left out water,used 3tbl rice vinegar and EVO each. Drained 2 13.5oz canned spinach, which I just dumped iñto wet ingredients, stirred and nuked! Garnish with a crumble of chopped hard boiled eggs and Italian seasoned bread crumbs
We really enjoyed this combination of flavours. It was used as a dip with tortilla chips instead of as a side dish. Some liberties were taken with ingredients: frozen spinach was replaced with fresh, steamed spinach; rice wine vinegar was used instead of red wine vinegar (none in house). Like others, the amount of vinegar was cautiously monitored by taste, but the measurement came out to a little less than what was listed. This recipe is a keeper. It turned out to be a great appetizer, and we'll use it in the future for a side dish.
this was pretty good! i changed it a bit. i reduced the amount of vinegar, and i only had white wine vinegar. then i added more olive oil.
Death by vinegar.I'll try again with a much reduced amount of vinegar!
This was horrible. Too much garlic, too much vinegar. Will not be making this again. I threw it out.
don't be so hard on the guy for recommending 1/3 cup of vinegar for a bag of spinach, clearly that's insane and he was probably leaning more toward finishing the article than being accurate with the parts. I just needed a spinach recipe that incorporates healthy, yummy tahini and this (with mods) is it :)
I made this tonight as part of a Mediterranean meal that also included chicken souvlaki and insalata caprese. The three things went well together. The spinach was good, though as with others here I used much less vinegar- 2 tbsp. Other minor changes were using a bunch of fresh spinach and also a fresh cayenne, torn in half
