The CC recognizes the need to not do stuff from scratch. Sometimes it's just not possible, and sometimes you have a choice between getting ingredients in frozen form or not at all. This note really applies to all frozen greens.
First up, thaw the thing. Just throw it on the counter in the morning, and you'll be fine in the evening. If in a hurry, put it in a colander, and a basin of warm water. Periodically replace the water with more warm water.
Now, this is the good part. Most recipes call for you to stir-fry this stuff. With both fresh and frozen stuff, you need to squeeze the water out of the stuff.
Squeeze that mother; squeeze that mother dry; when you think you can't squeeze no more, squeeze it some more. SQUEEZE THAT THANG!!!
Ahem.
That's enough screaming for one day.
You'll get brilliant results with the above technique.
Why? Well, sweethearts, the science will just have to wait for a future post, won't it?
