Thank you!! My mom had already fixed like three pies, baklava, brownies, chocolate cake, homemade fudge, etc. when I was leaving the house this morning.
And that's only dessert.

Deal, bring the entire fam. We could use that fearless daughter of yours as a bouncer.
I don't know about everyone's tradition, but where I come from, the men are obligated to give family kids some money every Eid. And not like a dollar or two. Typically $10 for young kids, and $20 for older ones. Needless to say, I ****ing hate Eid.

Jason, the Department of Homeland Security has already been notified. Don't worry. The whole board doesn't have to go down for this one bad apple.

The nation of my ancestry is forever impacted by Ottoman influence-- especially in terms of diet and music!! Baklava, byrek, etc.
My mother uses pecans, actually. Not sure what you mean by levers, but she hand-rolls a ton of super-thin dough and bakes it, and then submerges it in vats of sugar-water (and sometimes honey).

Thank you for your words, and congrats. Eid mubarak to past and upcoming Eids for you, your family, your peers, and whomever you know who celebrates!

Pecans in baklava? Are you sure it's not walnuts? I love making baklava, and I might try it with pecans to see what it's like. I've made it with pistachios, walnuts, pine nuts, sweet cheese, and chocolate. But never pecans.
Did you try it with skimmings(kaymak, it's basically made of milk, sugar and rice powder) inbetween. Baklava is the sexiest dessert and I love it in all shapes and colors. Still love Turkish Delight more, though.
Not fair Dalabro. I had no idea what this is so I looked it up.

100% sure. My mom used to always use walnuts, but she herself decided to move to pecans cuz she thinks it tastes better.
Never second-guess Mama Dal-- best cook/baker I've ever met, and ppl routinely ask for her byreks and baklavas for weddings.

we have Albanian family friends who make kadaif (I love this man, hahahaha, we've all had the SAME foods!!! This is nuts) but I've never really liked theirs! My mom doesn't make it, and I've never had it in Europe. I'll make sure to try some legit kadaif soon

at first I was like "pecans in baklava? What's so unusual about that?"
Then I realized that pecans only grow in Mexico and the Southern US. Huh!! Didn't know that!!
But srsly, pecans taste fantastic in baklava lol. They're expensive, otherwise I'd either tell you Turks to order them or send y'all some myself.
