For some reason I’m unable to edit my comment above, so here is the link to an old school video (21:15-23:00 minutes) using the salt method. If you youtube ‘spanakopitta’ there are lots of videos made by the ‘younger generation’ using the cooked spinach method

I’ve tried some of those cooked spinach methods and it never seems to come out that tasty. I’m looking forward to trying this one!!

try to find the coarser spinach and use a huge quantity of aromatics and one leek, also good quality feta and olive oil, will all make a difference…

some people also use fresh mint; that can really give a good kick and provides a vibrant overall flavour

if you can get the pastry from a greek shop, even better (it can then be frozen till needed)
