Frozen Chopped Spinach
Frozen Chopped Spinach
Frozen Chopped Spinach gives a busy kitchen the spinach it needs without the washing, stemming, chopping, and shrinkage that come with fresh. It arrives pre-cut and frozen in 3 LB packs, so a cook can pull exactly what a recipe calls for and keep the rest in the freezer. Baker's Authority sells it by the case of 12/3 LB and offers it in bulk and wholesale quantities for restaurants, bakeries, caterers, and institutional kitchens.
What It Is
This is chopped spinach that has been frozen for foodservice use, packed in 3 LB units and sold twelve to a case. Chopping before freezing means the leaves are already broken down to a fine, even cut, which is the texture most cooked spinach applications want. Fresh spinach loses most of its volume once it hits heat, so a 3 LB pack of frozen chopped spinach represents a large quantity of cooked-down leaves in a compact, ready-to-use form.
Texture and Flavor
Frozen chopped spinach has a soft, tender texture once heated and a mild, earthy flavor that takes well to garlic, cream, cheese, lemon, and nutmeg. Because it is chopped fine, it blends evenly into batters, fillings, and sauces rather than leaving long strands, and it adds a strong green color to anything it goes into.
Culinary Uses
Chopped spinach is a standard ingredient across a wide range of dishes in a commercial kitchen. It is used in:
- Creamed spinach and spinach side dishes
- Spanakopita, spinach pies, and savory pastry fillings
- Quiche, frittata, and egg bakes
- Spinach and artichoke dip and other hot dips
- Lasagna, stuffed shells, ravioli, and cannelloni fillings
- Soups, stews, and grain bowls
- Spinach breads, savory muffins, and stuffed doughs
For bakeries, the fine chop is what makes it work in doughs and fillings: it folds in without tearing the dough or leaving watery pockets, provided the excess moisture is pressed out first.
Handling and Prep
For fillings, dips, and baked goods, thaw the spinach and press or squeeze out the excess water before mixing it in; frozen spinach holds a lot of liquid, and removing it keeps fillings from turning soggy and pastry from going soft. For soups, stews, and sauces, it can go into the pot directly from frozen and break apart as it heats. Season after cooking, since the flavor is mild and takes on whatever it is paired with.
Storage
Keep frozen until ready to use. Once a pack has been thawed, use it rather than refreezing, since refreezing breaks down the texture further and adds water.
Bulk and Wholesale Options
Sold by the case of 12/3 LB, with a case weight of 37 LB, and shipped frozen. Bulk and wholesale quantities are available for high-volume production, and the 3 LB pack size lets a kitchen open only what it needs for a service or a batch while the rest stays frozen.
