Can I thaw frozen spinach thatīs meant to be boiled frozen?
The frozen spinach package says to boil while frozen, but I never seem to manage to get it cooked the way I like it. Either the center stays frozen (the package says 3-5min with boiling water and I need to keep it over 10min), or a big percentage of the spinach is way too bland.
I thought maybe thawing before, and then boiling, or even cooking in the pan would solve this. I donīt use fresh spinach primarily because of the money and convenience.
Can anyone tell me if this is a good idea?

In my experience frozen spinach will never be close to fresh, so I guess it depends on what sort of consistency you are hoping to get. In any case boiling from frozen sounds like the world's worst way to prepare it! There is no reason you can't thaw it before you cook it, but I wouldn't boil it in any case. I'd that it and drain it well, maybe even squeezing excess water out of it before pan frying it. Season it well with salt and pepper, a bit of butter never hurts.
