Spinach-Ricotta Valoute Soup Dumplings with Scallion-Chili Butter

Step 1
Prepare the spinach

Heat a large pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the spinach with a small pinch of salt and cook, stirring, until fully wilted and most of its moisture has evaporated. Transfer to a plate and let it cool, then squeeze out any extra liquid and chop finely.

⏱ 4 to 5 minutes🔥 Medium heat
Cues: The spinach should turn deep green and reduce dramatically, and the pan should look mostly dry rather than watery.
Tip: Removing excess moisture keeps the dumpling filling creamy instead of loose.
