Baklava<\/strong> is a very nutty and very sweet cake, which is served in the form of small pieces. You can find different versions of it, e.g. in the form of rolls or as one thick layer of stuffing between two layers of dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I try to prepare baklava to create as many layers as possible, thoroughly lubricating each sheet of filo pastry with butter and spreading ground nuts every 3-4 sheets of dough. This complex baklava must be cut before baking, because the dough will become hard and brittle after baking. Then it will be very difficult to cut the baklava into nice, even pieces. Thanks to the fact that the dough will be cut immediately, the sugar syrup you pour over the baked baklava will penetrate thoroughly into all layers of the dough. If you do not pour syrup over the cake, the dessert will be quite dry and not sweet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember that baklava is best on the third day, so it is best to prepare it in advance. This also makes it the perfect cake for large parties. You can prepare it much in advance, the cake will become tastier and you will be able to easily prepare other dishes without worrying about dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baklava is perfect for people on a vegetarian, flexitarian and pescatarian diet.
