Ingredients
- 1 Tbs. canola or safflower oil
- 2 tsp. peeled and minced fresh ginger
- 1 tsp. minced garlic
- 1 lb. mixed baby greens for cooking, well rinsed and drained but not dried (see note above)
- Pinch of kosher salt
Instructions
- Place a wide, deep saucepan over medium-high heat until hot enough for a drop of water to sizzle and then immediately evaporate. Add the oil, ginger and garlic and heat just until the garlic begins to sizzle, about 10 seconds.
- Add the greens all at once and, using tongs or 2 wooden spoons, toss and stir to coat with the oil and seasonings. Cover and allow the greens to steam with the droplets of rinsing water until tender, 9 to 12 minutes; the timing will depend on the varieties in the mix. Season with the salt. Transfer the greens to a warmed serving dish and serve immediately. Serves 4.
