Ingredients For "Cevizli Ev Baklavası" Homestyle walnut baklava:
1 egg
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp baking powder
about 3 +1/2 cups flour
pinch of salt
(I used 1 tbsp vinegar for extra crunchiness but it was better without it, the type of vinegar can differ. I would suggest try without vinegar then if you like ones more with and see the difference)
250gr. butter (we will melt and take out the foamy part after it)
To roll out the phyllo sheets: 200gr. or more wheat starch (if you can't find use corn starch)
about 300 to 400 gr. coarsely chopped walnuts
For the sherbet (syrup)
5 cups sugar
3+1/2 cups water
1 small lemon wedge
1 tsp lemon juice
(You can use less syrup first and add more after tasting if needed. The recipe amount is a bit more than enough)
TIPS FOR THE PERFECT BAKLAVA
Tip #1: For baklava, the flour type with a protein content of at least 13% is preferred.
Tip #2: Use only good quality wheat starch (or corn if you can’t find it)
between the layers
Tip #3: Separating the layers will create air between the layers to
make it more crunchy.
Tip #4: Gently wrinkling the dough batch helps to separate the layers
Tip #5: Sprinkling very less amount of vegetable oil or butter
between the layers will increase the rise of the layers
Tip #6: To prevent the phyllo layers from drying out, don’t work in the air circulated kitchen. Keep the windows closed, don’t use a fan, etc.
Tip #7: Collect the white foams from the melted butter and don’t use,
they burn in the oven and create brown spots (or use unsalted “ghee”)
Tip #8: Use a sharp knife and cut it with one move if possible so the
layers won’t stick to each other.
Tip #9: Pour hot butter over the baklava to help open
the layers.
Tip #10: Pouring the butter before cutting the second part helps
to cut easily without disturbing the phyllo sheets
Tip #11: Boil the sherbet for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens.
Check the last drops; they should be heavy, oozing.
Tip #12: Lower the temperature from 170C to 160C after 30 minutes. Continue to cook about 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes until golden color on top and bottom
