Baklavas have always been an irresistible treat in the Middle East. Not all baklavas are the same as they are made differently and taste completely different from each other. Lebanese baklavas are the most famous and that you see often around Dubai. For me personally, Turkish baklava has been the gold standard for baklavas. They are king sized, heavily stuffed with nuts such as pistachio, they taste fresh and very rich in the mouth, they could also have special filling such as cream. Each time you put a Turkish baklava in your mouth, you realize how rich the baklava is, where the thin perfectly crafted phyllo is heavily stuffed with nuts and soaked in intense butter and sugar syrup.
The first time I came across Turkishbaklavadubai.com was on instagram. Stories and Pictures on their instagram pages made me drooling and I definitely had no choice but ‘want’ them as they looked promising. Turkishbaklavadubai.com is an online shop who specialize in serving Turkish specialities to your home and they are not just limited to their name of baklavas, but also have an interesting collection of savoury on their menu such as their mouth watering signature Borek pastries.
SQUARE Baklava with Pistachio
Todays’ post is about the baklavas we received from turkishbaklavadubai.com and they definitely were addictive that we had to go back and order again for more. We received an assorted baklava box which consist of 3 kinds of baklava consisting of square, wrap and Mussel. Each one of them being different from the other. The square would be a classic Baklava which we most of us are familiar. They use at least 40 layers of phyllo to make this one and what we liked about it, it was crispy and till the end. They remained fresh like it just came out of the oven. Not sure how they do it but it was one of the best we’ve had.
Wrapped Baklava
90% of the green wrapped baklava is pistachio. It’s made from one roll of phyllo. This one’s less sweeter than the square Baklawa, in fact it was quite low that I could’t find the sweetness sometimes, or maybe it was the overpowering of the pistachios in it. Overall this is the recommended Baklawa for anyone who like it less sweet in general and would enjoy more pistachio.
Mussel Baklava
Mussel baklava was the favorite for all. It’s designed for the sweet tooth. It is heavily packed with pistachio, sugar syrup and semolina cream. Your mouth is literally full when you have the Mussel baklava. This is the one of the richest Baklawa from their collection. Do visit their official website to place an order for yourself to enjoy these mesmerizing baklavas that is sure to fascinate your taste buds. Also remember they are freshly made on order and not pre-made. You can visit their official website here where you also get to see how they make them.
