As a kid, I did not like the taste of vegetables. It was a great struggle for my mom to have me eat it. I only like meat and fruits.
Although the one vegetable side dish I liked was the Korean spinach side dish or Sigeumchi-namul . Why? Because it was tasty.
Is Korean Spinach Different from Regular Spinach?
Yes. Korean spinach is shorter and has thicker leaves than western spinach. It can hold the sauce better than regular spinach.
While you could make this dish with regular spinach, the texture may not be the same.
