I never forking saw Red Spinach before. I read that Red Spinach is also called Chinese Spinach and also Spleen Amaranth. Red Spinach is originally native to South America.

Today I saw it at my local Trader Joe’s.

It doesn’t taste too much different raw. Just slightly sweeter. Cooked taste more sweet less vegetable.

A pickled egg, beets and some red runner beans would be forking nice to add to this salad.
