Hi Refika. Just had a really cool experience that I want to share with you. I am on holiday in the Seychelles with my husband and we met three other couples on the beach who we had lunch with today. The table included Turkish, French, German, Swiss, and American citizens. I mentioned to the Turkish lady how much I enjoy watching your shows on KZbin. She loves them as well and the German lady also watches your videos. Thought you would appreciate that your videos were being discussed and appreciated in such an international fashion. So nice that we all have you in common. Thanks for continuing to put out high quality content where your enthusiasm shines through. Looking forward to more great videos!

I was adopted into a Lebanese family. Thank God for that. I grew up eating Baklava, Rolled grape leaves, kibbi, tabouli, stuffed squash. ....my family/cousins still make all the favorite dishes. When other kids in my school brought peanut butter and jelly or balogna sandwiches to school, I brought kibbi and grape leaves! lol

1st, Refika, I don't know anything of when you were thinner but today, you are far better looking than Jackie Kennedy was 2nd, "Serbet" is a genuinely Turkish word existing in the Greek language too meaning "Extremely sweet sirope" or "Extremely sweet substance" 3rd, "Fyllo" is a genuinely Greek word existing in the Turkish language too which in Greek means "Plant leaf" which is usualy thin in most of plants; that's why the thin layers of the fyllo are called like that and finally 4th but not least, I LOVE BAKLAVA!!! THERE'S NO WAY TO THANK YOU REFIKA FOR SHARING THIS RECIPE!!!!!!!!

Tried this recipe and it turned out perfect. However because of my Iranian heritage I made two changes to give it a more Iranian flavor. 1) added a tablespoon of rose water in the simple syrup and 2) added a tablespoon of ground cardamom to the chopped pistachio. You recipes are great, you explain things well and you make it all fun. ❤

Here in germany you can buy baklava mostly where you find other turkish dishes like Döner or Dürüm. But they are normally very costly, almost 2€ for a mouthfull. But if it would be cheap and tasty like yours, I would probably only roll along the streets with a stomach so large it will block the bosporus. Greetz and stay well. You are amazing.👍

Thank you my dear for putting this up. Many years ago I had befriended our little corner market owner, ( in a round about way, that's another story). His wife made baklava, hers was the first I had ever had, I fell in love with it. I have tasted some others through the years only to be disappointed, hers had spoiled me. I will have to make this one and your dry one to see which may come closest to hers. If I remember I think she used pecans. Anyway I can't wait to try this. Have a great day.

Thank you so much for saving me so much time! I'm trying this for the first time and some videos I've watched require the butter baste on EVERY layer! Now I know not to waste so much butter and time. That probably would have turned out too soggy, especially on the top half. I also now know why the syrup must be made with plain white sugar. I was thinking maybe more flavors like brown sugar, corn syrup, or (being Canadian) maple syrup. But thanks to you I now see that you want crystallization instead of caramelization, which makes sense now for more crunch and less soggy. Thank you again from Canada!

That’s cause when baklava was brought to the US, it was Greek and Arab immigrants, and they either make it differently OR they wanted to cut costs, so they made it with walnuts instead. I’ve never been to Greece or the Levantine countries, but I have lived in Turkey, this is definitely the original way. No cinnamon or lemon or honey either, like at some places include in the States. There was one place on the European side of the Bosporus where my French roommate would get chocolate baklava, which was delicious and I guess their speciality, we never found it anywhere else, but even that had pistachios in it. But even at most Arab and Greek restaurants here, they put a sprinkle of pistachios on top, cause it’s meant to have them. Maybe you just live in BFE, 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Oh my gosh... this looks so absolutely refined. Delicate, even. It's nothing like the baklava my mother made growing up - diamond-cut hunks of it swimming in citrus-zest infuses honey, stuffed with layers and layers and layers of walnuts and cinnamon, and sometimes even dressed-up with chopped chocolate - but it fits all the same criteria. I always wondered why hers had little browned flecks on it, and now I know. Looking forward to trying this recipe as soon as I can find some phyllo dough 😋

You're right. To pronounce ghee, we have to emphasis on ' h ', not only on ' g '. From Bangladesh 😊

To answer questions on suggestions for pastries and bread for Burak to show us how to make, the simple ekmek you get all the restaurants in Istanbul would be great, I miss that so much. Also şekerpare, Ramazan pidesi (if you haven’t made it in English already), and patatesli gül böreği would also be wonderful! Thank you all for your hard work!
