Baklava. CUT the baklava after assembly and before cooking, and top with butter to make everything smooth and "pretty". Put the cooled sauce on as soon as you pull the baklava out of the oven. It tastes like the baklava I buy in the Greek stores downtown and a LOT cheaper per piece.
You can cook Baklava using 5 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook that.
Ingredients of Baklava
- You need 15 sheets of pastry.
- It’s 1 cup of chopped dryfruits.
- Prepare 1 cup of sugar syrup.

Most recipes have multiple layers of filo and nuts, though some have only top and bottom pastry. Cut a diagonal diamond pattern in the baklava using a very sharp knife. Many ethnic festivals are held in my city throughout the year. One in May is the Greek Hellenic Festival.

My family enjoys baklava—a traditional walnut strudel. The recipe uses phyllo dough, which is not difficult to work with. Just have your ingredients ready to go and follow the directions on the package. The results are scrumptious and well worth the effort. Baklava is the quintessential Greek dessert.
