About Baklava dessert
Baklava is a sweet, layered pastry of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean origin, celebrated for its rich flavor and intricate preparation. The dessert consists of thin sheets of phyllo dough, generously brushed with butter and layered with a mixture of finely chopped nuts, often walnuts, pistachios, or almonds. It’s baked until golden and then soaked in a fragrant syrup made from honey, sugar, and sometimes rose or orange blossom water. While baklava is prized for its indulgent taste, it is calorie-dense due to its high sugar, butter, and nut content. Nuts provide healthy fats, protein, and micronutrients like vitamin E and magnesium, but the added sugars and butter contribute to its richness in saturated fats and calories, making moderation key. Popular at celebrations and as a treat, baklava remains a testament to centuries of culinary tradition and craftsmanship.
