🇬🇷 Greece recipe
Greek Baklava
Greek baklava is a legendary pastry of paper-thin phyllo sheets layered with a generous filling of chopped walnuts spiced with cinnamon, baked until shatteringly crisp, and bathed in a warm honey and lemon syrup. Unlike other regional versions, Greek baklava traditionally favors walnuts and honey over pistachios and sugar syrup.
