Steps:
- Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it's very clean. Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves.
- In a very large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic over medium heat for about 1 minute, but not until it's browned. Add all the spinach, the salt, and pepper to the pot, toss it with the garlic and oil, cover the pot, and cook it for 2 minutes. Uncover the pot, turn the heat on high, and cook the spinach for another minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the spinach is wilted. Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with the butter, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkling of sea or kosher salt. Serve hot.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, young spinach: Look for spinach with dark green, tender leaves. Avoid spinach with yellow or wilted leaves.
- Wash the spinach thoroughly: Rinse the spinach in cold water several times to remove any dirt or grit.
- Remove the tough stems: Hold the spinach by the stem end and use your other hand to strip the leaves off the stem. Discard the stems.
- Cook the spinach quickly: Spinach cooks very quickly, so don't overcook it. Overcooked spinach will become limp and lose its flavor.
- Season the spinach to taste: Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, or other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil.
