How to cook Baklava

Step 1

Prepare the dough: mix sour cream, room temperature butter, 2 yolks, a pinch of salt and quenched soda with flour. Achieve a firm, cookie-like texture. Put in the refrigerator for an hour or two.

Step 2

Preparation of the filling: choose whole wedges from nuts (about half). Grind the second part with sugar, spices to taste (vanilla, cardamom) and 3 proteins.

Step 3

Divide the dough into 3 parts, making one of the parts a little larger (for the top layer). Roll out 1 layer and place it on a greased baking sheet. The dough sheet must remain intact so that the filling does not leak. Spread half of the filling, spreading the filling evenly. Cover with the second sheet of dough and stuffing.

Step 4

Cover the baklava with the top layer of dough, turning up the edges, anoint the dough with yolk and outline the grid along which we will cut.

Step 5

Decorate with walnuts, dipping half of the walnut into the dough.

Step 6

Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, cutting through the grid so that the dough does not bubble up until ready. It is important not to overdry the nuts. Pour seams with honey (or syrup).

Step 7

Divide the baklava into diamonds and serve.
