Notes

Squeeze the Spinach: For the creamiest dip, ensure all excess water is squeezed from the thawed spinach. A dry kitchen towel works best for this.
Freshly Grated Cheese: Grating your own cheese from a block results in a smoother, better melt compared to pre-shredded varieties.
Serving: This dip is best served warm and bubbly, straight from the oven.
