It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Real flaked crab with bean sprouts, carrots, and cilantro helps make up a delicious dipper. Warm plum sauce with vinegar and soy provides a perfect complement.
3/4 cup cooked California rock crab meat, flaked
1/2 cup cabbage, minced
1/3 cup cooked green beans, chopped
1/3 cup raw bean sprouts, chopped
2 tablespoons canned bamboo shoots, chopped
1 teaspoon pickled ginger, minced
1 tablespoon green onion, chopped
2 tablespoons grated carrot
1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, chopped
spring roll wrappers
PLUM DIPPING SAUCE
2 tablespoons plum jelly
1 teaspoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons rice vinegar
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Put 3 tablespoons of filling on front section of the spring roll wrapper. Form the filling into approximately a 3-inch by 1 1/2-inch mound. Fold one end of the wrapper over the filling. Next, fold the 2 sides toward the middle, then roll the wrapper up and place seam side down on a platter.
At this point, the spring rolls may be sliced in half and served on a garnished plate with the dipping sauce, or they may be left whole and fried in hot oil.
For Plum Dipping Sauce: Combine ingredients and gently heat until jelly is melted. Serve warm.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
