Description
A rich, sweet dessert pastry made of layers of filo filled with chopped nuts and sweetened and held together with syrup or honey. Baklava is the first and most authentic type of Mediterranean sweets. It embraces hundreds of years of passion into every single piece. The finest nuts are roasted to perfection and sandwiched between fine layers of our grandfather’s secret recipe of phyllo dough and baked with care and affection.
Original Baklava is the most popular among all Mediterranean sweets. It features a thick layer of nuts such as pistachios, cashews, or walnuts. The thicker it’s nuts filling, the richer and the tastier it is. One of its secrets is the amount of sugar syrup to add to it. The right amount will give it a sweet taste while keeping the taste of nuts and dough in perspective. Adding too much sugar syrup would dominate its taste and hide the satisfaction delivered by the nuts and dough while being too short on the sugar syrup would deny its sweet feeling and gratification.
