How do you keep spanakopita from getting soggy?
Oil the sheet lightly and continue doing the same thing until you have lined the pan with half of the sheets (6 sheets). At this point, you can add some dried breadcrumbs over the last phyllo sheet, so the bottom of the spanakopita doesn’t become very soggy, but I never do that.

What is the difference between tiropita and spanakopita?

To the spinach and feta, we add flavor makers in the form of fresh herbs and aromatics.

To bind everything together, I used four large eggs.
