About this post
Post Description:
Baklava is a layered pastry dessert made of filo pastry, filled with chopped nuts, and sweetened with syrup or honey. It was one of the most popular sweet pastries of Ottoman cuisine.
So, What is it that makes Baklava taste amazing?
The answer is, It has it all: crispy filo pastry stuffed with nuts and a mountain of sugar, enough to rot your teeth if you eat too much of it. Baklava is a hard hitter; you only need a small amount to fulfil your sugar addiction, and as a result, it tastes extra special, like a real treat to savour.
One of the unique Baklava you need to try next is Havuç dilimi. Havuç dilimi (which translates to carrot-like slice in Turkish) is a Turkish dessert that is similar to baklava. Few differences from Baklava and Havuç dilimi to name a few are, Baklava can be packed with walnuts, hazelnuts, "kaymak" (a kind of special muhallebi), or pistachio nuts. Havuç dilimi are always filled with pistachio nuts. Second, as previously mentioned, their form differs from that of baklava.
Finally, havuç dilimi is served in a large individual portion; only one havuç dilimi is a large individual portion, while baklava(s) is sliced very thin, with a typical commercial individual serving of four parts.
