I never realized how much work goes into these. I remember always getting a free piece at Turkish owned Kebab place douring my collage years. That's why I always associate this dish with Turkish hospitality.
As far as i know, even turkish local people cant make it in home as it looks like in the video, it requires special processes and tools to make geniune baklava
We make Baklava in Balkans also but when i first tryed an original Turkish Baklava in Istambul few years ago i realised that we were wrong all the time. Our pastry layear are thicker and not so crispi and we use wallnuts instead of pistacios. That what we call Baklava is a poor copy of this masterpiece.Greetings from Montenegro.
As it should!!! authentic baklava use a lot of expensive ingredients . Looking in the videos, just the amount of ghee added to one tray alone can justify that price, not even counting the toppings . And then you have the handwork. They got their own kind of chef to make the fresh dough. yeah it's expensive no matter where you are, even at home if you tried with yourself it's going to cost you some decent amount of money.
Assalamualaikum ben Singapurluyum bu ayın 29'unda 40 oluyorum. Dürüst olmak gerekirse baklava en sevdiğim Türk tatlılarından biridir. Bu baklava tarifini paylaştığınız için çok teşekkür ederim.
@@ozguradam8221 doğum günü dileği için çok teşekkür ederim. gerçekten onu takdir ederim. evet burada Singapur'da baklava alabiliyoruz ama dürüst olmak gerekirse tadı Türkiye'dekiyle aynı değil.
Lovely video of Baklawa making!! What a yummy dessert.... full of crisp layers , sweetness and loaded with dryfruits !! It just melts in the mouth. I Love Baklava !!❤
@@nmerkazanova8344 I've been in many counturies you can now find baklava anywhere in the world it's my favorite sweet but hands down Turks make the best baklava when I went to Istanbul I had the best baklavas I ever had and it's variations there in Istanbul also kebabs 🤤🤤 I think Turkish cusine is great they definitaly make the best baklavas and kebabs
Wish there was recipes, not sure I'll ever be able to travel to Turkey to get it. Really hope I can, want to see Gobekli Tepe some day. Baklava is one of my all time favorite desserts when it's made right and isn't too dry. These recipes look absolutely delicious! Edit: Like what is that white spread they put on at the beginning? Never seen that before. I think I know the rosewater and honey syrup parts, but that white spread is something new.
That white stuff you speaking about the closest thing to it in English would be pudding. Just like rice or vanilla pudding . it's also done the same way, same principle. you start with heating up the milk you add the powder to it, let it simmer until thicken . and then you wait for it to cool down before using it other spread for the in the baklava. it is also a dessert by itself you can eat it myself just like pudding with some added Walnut or pistachios for the topping . I hope that helps somewhat
I once worked for a guy that was completely obsessed with Baklava... Seriously though.. if I tried to explain exactly just how much it consumed his life none of you would believe me for a second. Suffice it to say tragically he is no longer with us. R.I.P. Mr. Crown you will be missed 😥
Siempre he querido encontrar la receta de la masa filo para hacer los famosos baklava pero viendo la cantidad de pistacho que se utiliza creo que me saldría más barato ahorrar para viajar a Turquía y probar los verdaderos 🥴🥴
El pistacho es caro. Y es el ingrediente tradicional. Pero con dátiles queda excelente. Siempre hay alternativas, pues hay quienes son alérgicas o no les gusta el pistacho.
@@azrielmarduk3115 claro, también la nuez y la almendra serían un buen sustituto ( así es como los venden en mi país) pero en lo personal primero me gusta probar las recetas originales y ya luego hacerles cambios según mi gusto y mi presupuesto. De igual manera muchas gracias por tu recomendación 👌❤
@@angelasantacruzalvarez2809 I've recently been watching videos of this Azerbaijan woman make baklava -- three types. One with hazelnuts, one with walnuts, and one with pistachios. And she makes it in her home, too, complete with wood-fired oven, both indoors and outdoors. It's amazing how thin she gets the pieces of dough, all hand-rolled. And it looks sooo yummy! It also looks very much like what these guys are making here, just on a smaller scale. Oh, and her home environment is so lovely, too, complete with flower gardens, chickens, rabbits (in a hutch), and plenty of dogs and a couple of cats, for sure. The one posting the videos (not the woman baking) does provide the names of the ingredients, both in English and their mother tongue. I'm not an expert, but based on the subtitles, I'd say the Azerbaijani language is similar to Turkish, possibly.
Loved this dessert back when I was child. Favourite thing to have at the kebab. Now they rarely sell these at my local. Guess pistachio prices killed it.
I love Baklava! The way this video makes me feel 😍 Forget cookies, cake, ice cream…[insert any dessert]…I will always choose Baklava! Note: No Pistachio, it’s a no go!
This isn’t food, This is art, no, it’s edible art made with careful attention to detail. I could almost taste it. You left me feeling like I could make it myself, while also letting me it wouldn’t be the same. I salute you! Peace and love from Texas! Ps, The sound of the cool sweet honey, hitting that golden flakey goodness almost brought tears to my eyes!
