A great choice for a holiday side dish. INGREDIENTS:
PREPARATION:Thaw spinach in a colander; squeeze well to get as much moisture as possible out. Preheat oven to 350°. Butter a 1-quart souffle or casserole dish. Heat butter in a saucepan over medium low heat. When butter has melted, add flour; stir until smooth and bubbling. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly. When mixture is thick and boiling, remove from heat. Stir in the finely chopped onion, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the nutmeg. In a metal or glass mixing bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks have formed. In a separate bowl, beat yolks until frothy and lemon colored. Stir egg yolks into the sauce mixture; stir in the spinach. Stir about 1/4 of the beaten egg whites into the spinach mixture, then gently fold in the remaining egg white mixture. Pour into the prepared souffle dish; set dish in a large pan then add water to a depth of about 1 inch. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes. The top will be lightly browned. Serve immediately.
Serves 4 to 6.
