Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil and briefly sauté the finely chopped onion. Briefly wash the tree spinach leaves (if possible freshly harvested), add them to the onions while still dripping wet and let them collapse in the pot like the well-known spinach. Deglaze with a dash of white wine and season with salt and pepper. Pour the crème fraîche and the thinly sliced cheese over it and stir a little.
  2. Turn off the stove, cover the saucepan and let the cheese melt in the residual heat.
  3. Before serving, remove the saucepan from the heat (to protect the fine enzymes in the honey and the vitamins in the lemon juice) and pour the thinest possible honey and an appropriate amount of freshly squeezed lemon juice over the food and serve immediately.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
