Baklava from Greece: The Cookbook (page 583) by Vefa Alexiadou

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Eat Your Books

    The recipe suggests using this book's recipe for "Homemade phyllo dough". Can substitute honey for corn syrup, and vanilla extract for lemons.

    Excellent results! Family even said one of the best baklava they had ever tasted (they just want me to bake more). That said, I found the recipe lacked essential details when it was time to assemble. Novice cooks would have a bit of a hard time figuring out how many layers of nuts one should end with in the end. I'm not sure if the nut measurements are accurate either between the cups and the weight. I ended up using 3 cups of each nuts although the recipe suggests 2 cups. I didn't have a scale to weigh the ingredients.
