Is it better to blanch or eat spinach raw?
If you blanch it, it cooks too quickly.
That means the tissue is pretty weak, can I just eat it?

Spinach contains 'acetic acid', so it is recommended to blanch it.
If you eat it raw, you may not be able to absorb calcium due to the reaction of acetic acid and calcium when you eat it with other foods that have a lot of calcium.
