The Coupon Clipper scours the specials for the best deals in New York's big grocery stores.
We hadn’t been to Pathmark in a while, so we were suprised to see two great deals pop up. Shrimp for $4.99 first caught our eye, but spinach was also a deal at under a dollar a pound. So when the shrimp were a no show at the store, we had to move on to the leafy green. And in case you can’t read the small print, that’s “Jersey Fresh” they have stamped on the coupon. After a winter of frozen boxes of spinach, we’ll take it.
How best to go about whittling away a bunch of spinach depends on your situation. Motivated to spend all night slaving in kitchen? Sounds like a perfect time to make spinach lasagna. Want something to go with that steak? Take a cue from Peter Luger, and go for the creamed spinach. We like to keep things a little healthier, and with a tad more spice. Nothing is quite as simple as spinach sauteed in garlic and red pepper flakes.
There are different methods. But we like to keep it a one pot affair. Remove the stems and wash thoroughly. Add a tablespoon of oil and two cloves of minced garlic to a large pot. Heat over medium heat for about 8 minutes, and then add a pinch of red pepper flakes, or a tad more if you're feeling up to it. Let it heat up for 30 seconds or so, add the spinach, and stir until combined. Turn the heat up to medium high and cover. Cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove and season to taste. Anyone have a simpler idea?

a great final touch is to grate a little fresh nutmeg over the top and then toss. great flavor pairing
simplest spinach: wash the spinach in the same pot you'll use to boil...cover, put over medium-high heat, and after a few minutes add a bit of oil, salt, pepper, and a garlic clove! It's so simple. but make sure to stir so it doesn't burn!
Fresh Spinach!
Come for the multiple pesticides, stay for the bacteria risk!
the only pathmark in the city is on east 125th st.
I'm sure everyone is going to run right up there to get discount spinach.
How is this segment relevant to nyc again?
At least one vendor at the GAP Greenmarket has been offering fresh, local spinach the past two weeks...for $3.99 a pound.
Steamed for six minutes, sprinkle with tamari.
Or, as a throwback to my childhood, serve with mashed potatoes and play with your food before eating it (ie, smoosh the potatoes and spinach together for its visual and gustatory effect).
Wash it very well to remove any gritt
Wilt it in alittle garlic, olive oil, dash of salt and pepper.....
Last I heard, eating food was relevant to just about everyone, including those living in NYC.
Not that I want Gothamist to become a list of sales or a grocery circular, but these posts are sporadic enough that I don't think there's any danger of that.
Furthermore, there's a Pathmark at Pike Slip on the LES, and there's one in the Atlantic Center in Brooklyn.
Mmm...Jersey Fresh

Dumbf*#k strikes again!
There is a huge Pathmark at Pike & Cherry in the shadow of Manhattan Bridge.
kiss my ass
...and last time I checked, Brooklyn is in NYC too.
Spinach salad is the easiest.
yeah and manhattan is in nyc too.
This site focuses on Brooklyn so much that a better name for it would be Brooklynist
Why doesn't anonymous just shut up and take his/her comments elsewhere. I love Brooklyn!
