@@nikolopaa Hello Niko, May God bless you and Our Lady Theotokos bless you and your family, Just wanted to tell you; I followed your recipe to the "T", I made it today, and it came perfect, everyone loved it, and from now on I will continue making it like yours, delicious, not too sweet just perfect in sweetness and the "crunch" just perfect at the bite then it dissolves by itself in the moth, with a good espresso is just the perfect marriage in flavor and texture, thank you so much.
Again thank you very much for sharing.😇🥰🙏🙏🙏
I use the same ingredients in my baklava, except I never tried adding the pistachios. I may try it. Thanks for sharing!
It's so good! Let me know if you try it and how you like it
@@nikolopaa Yes, I did try adding pistachios and it was good! 👍
The best baklava I have taste was I Thessaloniki ❤ and if I remember correctly looked very close to yours. I will definitely try your receipt. Thank you!
So good! Hope it comes out the same for you 😃
I have been making this for close to 50 years. Make things a little easier by putting your melted butter in a clean spray bottle.
Thanks Lisa :)
Damn, that looks good! Now, let's see if i can't find filo pastry where I live.
Thank you! Where are you located ?
@@nikolopaa Northern Norway, so the selection is somewhat limited.
Buttahhhhh
Lmao
Genuinely dissapointed that this version is missing as much of the accent ! Otherwise, definitely going to try this :)
Fair enough haha! The shorts are for entertainment and education, playing on the Greek migrant that lives in Australia. Here I want to do more in depth videos :)
Hello for your Greek cookies how much self raising flour you did not say. I want to try it.
Hey Mary, sorry are you referring to one of my other videos ?
