Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it’s very clean. Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves. In a very large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and sauté the garlic over medium heat for about 1 minute, but not until it’s browned. Add all the spinach, the salt, and pepper to the pot, toss it with the garlic and oil, cover the pot, and cook it for 2 minutes. Uncover the pot, turn the heat on high, and cook the spinach for another minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the spinach is wilted. Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with the butter, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkling of sea or kosher salt. Serve hot.
One 1 1/2-ounce piece of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, shaved into curls with a vegetable peeler. Preheat the oven to 450°. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the asparagus with 1 tbsp. of the oil and lemon zest and season with salt/pepper. Roast asparagus for about 8 min, until just tender and the tips begin to turn brown. In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice with the mustard and the remaining olive oil. Season with salt/pepper. In a large bowl, toss lettuce with all but 2 tbsp. of the dressing. Arrange on plates and top with the roasted asparagus and cheese curls. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the asparagus and serve.
