Ingredients
2 tablespoons butter
4 ears corn, kernels scraped from cob
2 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup heavy cream
Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
2 bundles fresh farm spinach, about 1/2 pound trimmed weight, chopped
Directions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. When the butter is hot, stir in the corn and the starchy liquid scraped from the cobs. Cook for 5 minutes, then stir in the garlic and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes more, then add the cream and nutmeg, stirring occasionally, until very creamy, about 15 minutes. Add the spinach and stir until wilted. Season with salt and pepper, if needed.
