Steps:
- Soak the raisins in a bowl with enough warm water to cover for 10 minutes.
- Rinse the spinach in a couple changes of cold water. Discard any wilted or bruised leaves and trim away any thick, woody stalks.
- Place the spinach in a large pan with nothing but the water that clings to the leaves, cover the pan, and cook over low heat until the spinach has collapsed and is tender. This should take 5 to 10 minutes.
- Transfer the spinach to a colander and drain. Once it's cool enough, squeeze it with your hands to eliminate any excess liquid.
- Meanwhile, peel and gently crush the garlic cloves with the flat side of a knife.
- In a large skillet or sauté pan over medium-low heat, gently cook the garlic until fragrant and lightly golden and then remove it. Add the butter to the pan, let it foam slightly, then add the pine nuts and turn them in the oil before adding the spinach and a pinch of salt. Cook for 2 minutes, or just until the spinach leaves glisten.
- Drain the raisins and add them to the pan, gently turn the ingredients a couple more times, and serve immediately.

FASTEST PASTA WITH SPINACH SAUCE
The very best pasta is often the simplest. Jack Bishop, the author of "The Complete Vegetarian Cookbook," has refined his technique for pasta and vegetable sauce to breathtaking efficiency: He cooks the greens with the pasta and adds the seasonings at the last minute. While the pasta is cooking, Mr. Bishop prepares the seasonings. Allow at least a gallon of water to a pound of pasta, because you need a large pot to accommodate the greens and because, if there is too little water, the addition of the greens will slow the cooking too rapidly.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Meanwhile, mince the garlic as finely as possible and combine it in the bottom of a warm bowl with the red pepper flakes, olives and olive oil.
- Place the pasta in the pot, and cook until it is nearly done (test it for doneness by tasting). Plunge the spinach into the water, and cook until it wilts, less than a minute. Drain quickly, allowing some water to cling to the pasta, and toss pasta and spinach in the bowl with the garlic and olive mixture. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.

CANNELLONI WITH SPINACH, RAISINS AND PINE NUTS
From The New Spanish Table. According to the author, though cannelloni may have their origins in Italy, they have become something of a Catalan national dish. Rather than ricotta fillings and tomato-based sauces, Catalon cannelloni dishes can be filled with fish, ground meat or spinach. No-boil lasagna noodles can be used in place of cannelloni squares. I love the raisins in this, but they're the only thing my son doesn't like about it, so go with your own best judgments about family preferences.

SPINACH WITH RAISINS AND PINE NUTS (ESPINACS A LA CATALANA)
An addictive melange of spinach, garlic, raisins, pine nuts and good olive oil, this is one of the best Catalan dishes. Its uses in the Catalan kitchen are many - in croquettes or egg tortillas, as a topping for cocas (flat breads), as a filling for savory turnovers or cannelloni, or as a base for baked fish. As a side dish, it goes with just about anything, and nothing beats it in the morning on toast, topped with poached eggs. The recipe is also great made with other wilted greens, such as chard or escarole. Adapted from "The New Spanish Table" cookbook.

- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over low heat. Add the garlic, pine nuts, and soaked raisins and cook until the nuts and garlic are light golden, 3-5 minutes.
- Increase the heat to medium, add the chopped spinach and cook for about 1 minute, stirring to combine evenly. Season with salt and pepper to taste, transfer to a serving bowl and serve.
