What it is

Baby spinach is young spinach, harvested before the leaves mature. It is a leafy green vegetable grown from spinach seeds, typically cultivated in fields or greenhouses. The leaves are tender and have a milder flavor than mature spinach.

Why it's used

Baby spinach is most often used fresh in salads and as a topping for various dishes. Its tender texture and mild taste make it a popular choice for pre-packaged salad kits, sandwiches, and wraps. It can also be lightly cooked in dishes like pasta, soups, and stir-fries.

Health notes

Baby spinach is a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as folate and iron. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) generally recognizes spinach as safe (GRAS) when used as a food ingredient. International bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated spinach and its components. Consuming spinach as part of a balanced diet is associated with various health benefits, including supporting immune function and bone health.

Allergen info

Spinach is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
