Baklava Yield 60 pieces
20-22 sheets Phyllo 4 cups of Walnuts, fine chopped 4 cups of Blanched Almonds, fine chopped 1/2 cup of Sugar 1 Tbsp. Cinnamon 1 Tbsp. Ground Cloves 1/2 to 3/4 cup Butter 4 Tbsp. Water
Honey Syrup:
1/2 cup Sugar 1 cup Honey 3/4 cup Water 1 Lemon, juiced 1 stick Cinnamon
Defrost phyllo dough according to package directions.
In
a large bowl, combine the walnuts and almonds with the sugar, cinnamon,
and cloves. Mix will with hands or a large whisk until thoroughly
blended.
Preheat oven to 350°F
Oil the bottom and sides
of a 17 X 13 inch (or equivalent) rectangular baking pan. Place a sheet
of phyllo in the pan and brush with a little butter. Allow any overlap
to hang out the sides. Repeat until there are 4 sheets on the bottom.
Spoon one third of the nut mixture evenly over the pastry. Add two more
sheets of pastry, brushed with butter. Spoon a little of the nut
mixture over the pastry and repeat until all but 4 sheets of phyllo
remain. Top the pastry with 4 sheets, each brushed with butter, except
the top sheet. Tuck any overlapping phyllo dough under itself, on top
of the filling.
Score the pastry in pieces using a razor blade,
and follow up with a sharp knife, cutting all the way through. To make
triangles: cut the pastry into squares, then, cut squares in half
diagonally to make triangles.
Sprinkle just the top of the pastry with water to prevent curling. Bake on the rack just below the middle of the oven 350°F until golden 35-45 minutes.
Note: The cooked baklava may have white spots on top. These are from the water and will disappear after the syrup is added.
Bring
the syrup ingredients to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes,
then remove cinnamon. Pour the hot syrup carefully and evenly over the
hot baklava as soon as it comes out of the oven, making sure to cover
the sides and corners. Allow the baklava to cool thoroughly and absorb
the syrup before serving (at least 3-4 hours).
