Notes and Instructions

Kitchen Garden Magazine, April/May, 1997 issue. Now I know creamed spinach is not generally thought of as a summer food, but I decided to include it here because spinach is so popular in Tanzania. You will never make creamed spinach any other way once you have tried this. ALWAYS gets compliments from company.
