Baklava!

My latest cooking adventure was in making baklava. If you can buy all the handy-dandy made-for-baklava ingredients, it's actually not that hard. I bought the special baklava filo dough, and the special crushed baklava pistachios. After that, you just layer the filo dough (carefully, they're fragile), and lots of melted butter, and stop halfway to spread crushed pistachios. Of course, we did use 50 sheets of filo dough, so that's the hard part. At the end, you bake until golden and pour sugar syrup over the top. Serve with crushed pistachios on top. Mmm, healthy. All in all, for our small pan, we used 4 sticks of butter and 5 cups of sugar. No wonder it's so good. Bring on the calories!
