My wife made baklava the other day to bring in to a potluck at her office. I’ve had so many soggy, over-sweetened, stale pieces of baklava that I wasn’t so sure of it at first. One bite later I was a convert. It was light, flaky, and had just enough sweetness. The triple-threat combination of almonds, pistachios, and walnuts really elevated it. Go get some phyllo dough and make this (she used Alton Brown’s recipe).




Yum! I love Baklawa!
This was a very delicious baklava – I love pistachios in it. Great picture of it, too!
That looks fantastic! It’s so hard to find a good baklava. They are usually soggy. I guess I will just have to make my own.
