Hi you resourceful lot. I have a glut of spinach at the minute and little/no freezer space.
I've tasted the results of the Bulgarian method of heavily brined (and aspirined) hot water and it's not that pleasant, even in a curry.
Any suggestions, other than feeding to livestock?

Ok I've found a recipe for lacto fermentation of spinach which has to be worth a try with half a dozen jars. Still would like other ideas though.
I'm also going to see if I can insert the link. But posting the adress as well (just in case)

Are you sure, Tracey, that you can't find some minimal space - after cooking, spinach disappears to very little!
Pork Florentine in large-ish ovenproof dish:
Thickly-sliced tomatoes (flash-fried with some garlic, if liked);
topped with layers of spinach;
topped with thinly sliced pork, flash-fried beforehand;
covered with a cheese sauce, and then more cheese, (perhaps Parmesan)
Baked for about half an hour, till beginning to become golden on top
Serve with freshly cooked pasta, if serving a hungry lot!

Mmmmmm thinly sliced pork and parmesan - think finding those in Bulgaria might be harder than preserving spinach. lol Sounds lovely though

Gosh, thought you were further out in the sticks than that EP. You have a Lidl??
The lidl I went to a couple of towns over had meat prepared the BG way, i.e. hit it with a cleaver into portion size no matter where the joints or bones are. I'm loving it here but I'll be butchering my own animals simply so I can have some cuts I recognise.
