Pistachio Baklava is the most delicious dessertBaklava makes you feel the richness of its taste, in addition to the secrets hidden in its golden layers, methods and ingredients, but baklava is not limited to one type or one place, the magic of its delicious taste extends in many regions, as its ingredients, types and shapes vary from one place to another.What is Baklava?Baklava is one of the most delicious desserts. It consists of crisp, easy-to-eat layers of dough with different fillings ranging from pistachios, hazelnuts, cashews or even cream.
The word baklavaThe origin of the word baklava is due to being an Ottoman Turkish word and used in many different languages, and it was introduced to the English language in 1650, and it came derived from its Turkish origin, but according to Hans Fehr's dictionary, the popular representation of the Arabic word baklava is a proportion of the word legumes, due to the entry of peanuts in the preparation of this dessert as a basic filling at the beginning, and then varied after that to be pistachios, hazelnuts, cashews and the most delicious and delicious types of nuts.Naming Baklava The name of the baklava differed and varied, but the most famous is that it came after the name of the wife of one of the Ottoman sultans, and in another novel it was said that it was named due to the use of a type of legumes in its ingredients and numbers, but the most famous novel of all came when the cook of the Ottoman Sultan known as "Lawa" prepared it, and it was a new variety at the time, so when the Sultan tasted it for the first time, he was very impressed and said "Baklawa", which means Lawa did it and it was an honour for her at the time, so it was called Baklawa.Baklava's history with the Ottoman Empire The Sultan used to distribute trays of baklava to the Janissaries and other military units in Istanbul, with each ten people having a tray of baklava, and they used to have big celebrations when the trays of Turkish baklava were transferred from one place to another. They were distributed and transported in a special system where Selahdar Agha starts first and takes the first two trays in the name of the Sultan because the Sultan considers the Janissary to be the first number, and the soldiers take the remaining trays for each tray; they pass a greased and well-covered wood and carry the tray on their shoulders. The heads of each regiment walk in front, and the tray bearers walk behind them, as Turkish baklava was one of the basics of celebrations in the modern Turkish state and the old Ottoman Empire, where a special procession known as the baklava procession appeared in the middle of Ramadan in the late seventeenth century AD, and from here, baklava became one of the most famous types of sweets that are served on modern occasions and celebrations as well.Learn about the origin of baklavaIn 2013, the European Commission imposed a stamp of origin on baklava exported from Gaziantep, a city in southern Turkey, and thus baklava was recognised as a Turkish product, although Arab countries attribute types of baklava and sweets to their local industry and traditional folklore. Baklava may have travelled from Turkey to the rest of the empire, where its manufacture, configurations and types varied from region to region. Confectioners throughout Greece, the Middle East and beyond challenge the Turkish claims about baklava. Baklava is found everywhere from Morocco to Iran and Saudi Arabia, and the shapes, types and ingredients may vary, the nuts may vary, the spices and seasonings may change, but the syrup (tar) remains the same in all forms and methods of manufacture.The Battle of Baklava between Greeks and TurksThe dispute started with some European posters depicting the Turkish dessert as the national dish of Greek Cypriots. The poster was issued among other posters about the most famous desserts in EU countries, on the occasion of the EU-sponsored Europe Day, and according to Reuters, this poster sparked the "baklava battle" between Turks and Greek Cypriots, which developed into marches in Istanbul in the Sultanahmet neighbourhood in which 200 baklava makers in Turkey participated. At the same time, Reuters reported that an aide to Ali Babacan, head of Turkey's delegation in negotiations with the European Union, pledged to raise the issue of the baklava dispute at EU headquarters in Brussels, and the battle over baklava is one of many food fights involving Middle Eastern and Mediterranean countries.Learn about baklava typesCreamy pistachio baklava: A type of traditional Turkish dessert made from a mixture of cream and pistachios.Burmese baklava: It is a baklava that is a thin dough roll rolled into a circular shape, stuffed with walnuts or pistachios.Pistachio Baklava Rolls: It is a baklava made from pistachios and is one of the most popular names for Turkish baklava.Iranian baklava:Iranian baklava differs from the rest of the types of baklava in that it is prepared from a specific number of crispy dough sheets in addition to saffron, coconut and nuts, all of this in one mixture together.Greek baklava:It is prepared from 33 layers of dough and symbolizes the years that Christ lived in the belief of the Greek state.
