Spinach pretreatment is to cut the spinach roots and remove the yellow leaves. Then, it simulates manual soft bubble cleaning or eddy current cleaning. After cleaning, it is air-dried or centrifugally dried. After air-drying or spinning, it can be packaged and shipped into the market through cold chain transportation.
