Are you one of those big fans of Turkish Baklava? Do you sigh whenever you crave for it because you don't know how to make it at home? Don't worry! This course will teach you how to bake Baklava!

Baklava is served at all special occasions like wedding ceremonies, festivals and religious events. It is the dessert of any celebration! Although it is a very special Turkish pastry that everyone craves for, it doesn't require anything fancy. Baklava is made with very simple ingredients. Turkish baklava is well known with its pistachio filling, it's definitely not limited to it. Maybe because pistachio is not a very cheap product around the country, homemade baklava is mostly made with walnuts. Plus, every region has its own filling. 

In this course, I will use walnuts for the filling and ground pistachio as garnish on the top. What to use for baklava filling is completely up to your taste. You can even use a mixture of all nuts together. The students will learn how to make delicious syrup, learn measuring with cups and spoons, and cutting phyllo sheets equally.

This course requires students with experience using a knife to cut the phyllo sheets, stove to cook the syrup in a pot and experience using the oven. Parents are welcome if child needs assistant!

By the end of class, students will have a tray of diamond shaped Turkish Baklava!
