About Greek dessert
Baklava is a quintessential Greek dessert, renowned for its rich layers and sweet flavor. Originating from the Mediterranean region and embraced in Greek cuisine, this pastry is crafted with thin sheets of phyllo dough, finely chopped nuts—often walnuts or pistachios—and a generous drizzle of honey or syrup infused with spices like cinnamon or cloves. The dessert is baked until golden and crisp, creating a delightful balance of textures. While baklava is calorie-dense due to its butter content and sugar syrup, it offers some nutritional benefits from the nuts, which are packed with healthy fats, protein, and antioxidants. However, its high sugar content means moderation is key when indulging in this treat. Baklava is a delicious representation of Greek culinary tradition, combining wholesome ingredients with indulgent flavors in a way that has captivated palates for generations.
