Delightful Summer Baklava - Recipe by Grandma XHENI - PART I Ingredients: 600 gr of crunched nuts 500 gr wheat flour 5 eggs 350 gr unsalted butter 2 coffee cups of vegetable oil 1 lemon dry cloves 2 soup spoons of raw honey corn starch salt Preparation: Baklava could be prepared with thinned dough foils or with ready dough foils, which are bought ready in the shop. Grandma Xheni thins the dough foils by herself. For you that will use pre-made foils, make sure to get wet foils dedicated for sweets; and you may skip the first part of the recipe (preparation of dough and thinning of the foils. Start with dough preparation: Sift the flour using a thin sieve. Pput the flour in a bowl and open a hole in the middle. Add the yolks of two eggs and three whole eggs. Add little salt. Work the preparation with hands. Add a coffee cup of tiepid water and one coffee cup of vegetable oil. Work the dough well, until it becomes a slightly softer than the pie dough. Wrap it with plastic foil and let it rest for at least one hour. Meanwhile, crack the nuts and crunch them into small pieces. Grandma Xheni advice to use the knife to cut the nuts, so that baklava tastes better that way. Add three soup spoons of brown sugar to the crunched nuts mix well with the help of a spoon. Once the dough break is completed and the room is warm, start with the thinning process. Divide the dough into small pieces and prepare scones of dough. Work the scones with corn starch and leave them into the dough bowl. Grandma Xheni advises to work the baklava dough in piecemeal, so that the dough is not dried. Take one scone and thin it using a rolling-pin, util the foil is sufficient thin to read the newspaper below it, as Grandma Xheni says. #baklava #lightsweet #tastybaklava #brownsugar #rawhoney #thinneddough #summerbaklava #nuts #idealrecipeforsummer #GrandmaXhenirecipe #shortpreparation #fantasticsweet #bakllavaelehte #recetaenenaxhenit #bakllavaverore #petateberavete #vezetefresketa #embelsireeshijshme https://www.instagram.com/p/BvXt20dHKSf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9a9yjvaiwzlb
