  2. Hi
    I like ur sunny spinach pie. So creative of you:) Can you ps tell me if I can substitute dry white wine with some other non-alchoholic liquid? Look forward to your reply.

  3. I am in the United States and have a question about the measurement of flour used. You say to use 17 oz. of flour, what does that compute to cups? Thanks you, this look so good! I will be awaiting your answer.

    1. A cup is 8 ounces but that is volume. When a recipe calls for weight a cup measure is different depending on what dry ingredient you are using. Flour weighs 4 ounces per cup measure as Ingrid said. I am making your recipe right now and really looking forward to trying it. It looks spectacular!

  4. Thank you for this recipe can I make it and freeze it for a day or two before baking it and serving. Straight from freezer to oven to table thanks

  5. Facilissima, buonissima e soprattutto di grandissimo effetto: a masterpiece! Grazie per la ricetta
    ps: viene ottima anche sostituendo al vino bianco la stessa dose di acqua frizzante, in questo modo si ottiene la “pasta matta”
