About
Spinach has dark green leaves that, depending on the variety, may be either curled or smooth. Smooth, or flat leaf spinach, is sometimes sold as "salad spinach". These have a more tender, delicate texture. Curly leaf spinach has a firmer texture. Both have the same taste and nutritional value and look the same after they are cooked.
