Baklava

Toasted baklava in its multitude!
 Why is baklava so endearing? Is it the brittle filo pastry or the honey glazing or maybe the chopped up hazel nuts? Whatever it is, it's perfect.


 There is such a variety of baklava-ones resembling birds nests...
...others infused with shredded coconuts....even chocolate coated ones! At the end of the day, they are scrumptious!

And here's me thinking that Turkish Delight only came in one flavour!

  1. Used to live near a little Greek market that sold incredible, dripping in honey baklava. The pan was guarded by a little old Greek woman who always looked disapproving and made us feel unworthy to buy it. But we did anyway!
