I like to add my spinach to the basket of my salad spinner. Then I fill it with water and swish it around with my hands. Drain it and repeat a second time to ensure any dirt or debris is removed. Allow the washed spinach to drain in a colander or on a clean kitchen towel. You can gently pat it dry with a paper towel if needed. Remember to be gentle when handling spinach to avoid bruising or damaging the delicate leaves
