    How is the Handmade Walnut Baklava made?

     

    The Baklava: the Handmade Walnut Baklava is made from 40 layers of filo pastry. First, we make the mixture of flour, egg, yogurt, vinegar, oil, and butter. Then, we knead the dough, cut it up to small balls and wait for it to rise. Then, we dust the amylum and baking powder on the balls. We flatten the parsty balls by the rolling pin to form the very thin layers of the filo pastry. We cut it into 4 pieces. We put the Baklava on the baking tray.

    And we pour the melted butter on it. Then, we bake it in a hot oven on 160 degrees until the colour is golden, so we remove it from oven to add some more melted butter and put it back in the oven and bake it for more 45 minutes.

    The syrup: we boil a mix of 5 glasses of water and 4 glasses of sugar for 15 minutes then we add a few drops of lemon juice and boil it for more 1-2 minutes. We pour the syrup on the Baklava after removing it from the oven. It will be ready to be served after percolating the syrup into it.

Then, it is flattened by the dough sheeter machines to a 5 mm thickness and then it is flattened by the rolling pins used by the chefs to a 5 micron thickness. Finally, it is shaped according to the sort of Baklava and baked in a hot oven.
