Pistachio Baklawa
When I got home from work, a surprise was waiting for me. Not a big surprise, but a nice nutty one.
A friend brought over some baklawa that came to Hawaii via Lebanon. This baklawa was made with pistachios instead of walnuts, and I heard this was more authentic than what we usually eat here in the states. Can anyone tell me if this is true or not? In any case, I savored every bite. Now I'm wishing that there was more.
By the way, Augustus Gloop, of Grab Your Fork, asked for a baklava recipe a while back when I had made mention of it to her by way of a comment on her blog. Augustus, I apologize for the delay, but the recipe and post will be up this Sunday, April 10.
**NOTE**
I initially stated that this baklava came from Greece, the post has been corrected to reflect it's true origin and name. It's actually baklawa from Lebanon.
