Baklava - My family enjoys baklava—a traditional walnut strudel. The recipe uses phyllo dough, which is not difficult to work with. Just have your ingredients ready to go and follow the directions on the package. The results are scrumptious and well worth the effort. Garnish baklava with finely chopped nuts or drizzle with melted chocolate. Whereas it is most common to find baklava made entirely with walnuts here in Greece, I prefer a combination with almonds. Place the cinnamon stick and whole allspice into a spice grinder and grind. Thank you and good luck
