CREAMED SPINACH WITH NUTMEG AND GOLDEN RAISINS

Steps:

• Bring a large kettle half filled with lightly salted water to a boil. Add the spinach, pushing it down into the pot with a large spoon. Cook until the leaves are softened and turn bright green, about 1 minute. Immediately drain the spinach and plunge it into a large bowl of cold water to stop the cooking. When cool, drain well and use your hands to remove as much excess water as possible. Transfer the spinach to a cutting board and chop coarsely.
• Meanwhile, soak the raisins in 1/2 cup of boiling water for 10 minutes. Drain the raisins and chop them coarsely; set aside. Place a large saucepan over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Sprinkle with the flour and cook for an additional 2 minutes, being careful not to let the mixture darken. Add the cream and nutmeg and simmer for 2 minutes. Add the spinach and raisins and cook until heated through. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately as a side dish or as a complement to steamed and sliced chicken breasts.
