Content: That said, if you want to freeze your spinach, do it fast. If the leaves start to wilt before you freeze them, they will taste very bitter. HGTV suggests cleaning, drying and trimming the leaves before getting started. After that, you may want to blanch the leaves. You can either blanch the leaves normally or steam blanch them. To blanch them normally, bring a pot of water to boil and add the fresh spinach. Leave them in the water for about two minutes, and then put them in ice water for another two minutes. To steam blanch, fill a pot with about two to three inches of water and bring it to boil. Put a mesh colander or steamer basket in the pot so it rests above the water, add the spinach. Steam for two minutes, then place the spinach in ice water.
