Edible parts
Leaves
Recipe idea for your 'Sioux' F1 spinach harvest. Prepare a large salad with freshly harvested leaves. Rinse them in several changes of water if soil has lodged in the folds, then spin them dry thoroughly. Tear large leaves into bite-sized pieces and keep the smaller ones whole. Mix a tablespoon of cider vinegar with three tablespoons of oil, a little mustard, and a pinch of salt. Pour over only the amount needed to coat the foliage. Add apple wedges, cheese cubes, and a few shelled sunflower seeds. Toss with your hands or two large spoons to maintain volume and serve immediately. Well-dried foliage holds dressing better and prevents a watery plate. Thick stems can be chopped more finely than tender parts to balance the bites. If you are combining several harvests, use the sturdiest leaves as a base and add the most delicate ones last.
