Creamed Spinach

Serves 4 to 6
When Peter Luger opened a steak house in New York City in 1887, creamed spinach was on the menu. The success of the restaurant resulted in many copycat menus. It is hard to even imagine a steak house today without creamed spinach on the menu.

Tip: If you would like to make this ahead, transfer the creamed spinach to a lightly buttered casserole dish. Sprinkle the top with buttered bread crumbs. Refrigerate until 40 minutes before serving. Bake at 350° F for about 30 minutes, until hot and bubbly.
