In Doy’s garden
Log it in Doydum and a row of beans sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.
Baklava is layers of paper-thin dough brushed with butter, filled with chopped pistachios or walnuts, baked crisp and soaked in syrup. Gaziantep is its most famous home; it is eaten at celebrations and holidays, often with tea or coffee.
Piece sizes vary by shop and shape, so weighing two pieces once gives you a handy reference.
