National Baklava Day

National Baklava Day, November 17th, fills the kitchen with the aroma of a sweet and flaky pastry. Baklava's sweet layers of texture and flavor are created between sheets of filo pastry filled with chopped nuts and drizzled with syrup or honey.

Baklava is believed to have originated with the Turkic people in Central Asian nations, according to several. However, several nations also prepare the dessert in a variety of ways. In 1650, the word "baklava" first appeared in English.

Try trying the many varieties of baklava if you've never tried baklava. Walnuts, pecans, pistachios, or almonds can be used, as well as almonds. The filling can be made of raisins, dates, prunes, or even figs. Often all three spices are used in baking recipes, such as cinnamon, cardamom, or cloves...

This dessert can be difficult to make. Preparing this dessert can be time-consuming. However, the effort and the wait are worth the effort, and it is well worth the wait.
