Ottoman Turks influenced many cultures and cuisines throughout the centuries. We also use "YUFKA" to make baklava. The word baklava, also contains Turkish and Arabic origins. Overall, It could be easy to brush away all the controversy over the origins of Baklava with a sweeping smile, or judge it as yet another demonstration of Greek or Turkish fundamental nationalism.
I am a Canadian 6th generation that has lived in Bulgaria and Romania ...I totally agree with your statement and it is noticeable especially south of where my house is in Ruse Bulgaria...the foods are regional like Banitsa which is Phyllo with Sirene( Bulgarian feta ) or Tarator a cucumber soup made from yogurt ...but as you go northwest into Romania past Brasov \ Culj you see more Germanic\ Slav foods ....the Ottoman Empire was brutal...lets never have that happen again !
Hi, I'm interested in the use of one egg into the dough. In conversation with an American Cypriot I was told to use the egg. Which agrees with your recipe. Completely different from all the other recipes.. what does the egg accomplish in the finished product ? Have used KA 1/2 All purpose Flour, 1/2 00 Flour as the U Tube described. Would appreciate your thinking...thanks
Filo (phillo) is a word that greek use to call this dough. But the dough originally is NOT GREEK!!! Phyllo, filo, or fillo dough is paper-thin sheets of unleavened flour dough used for making pastries in Middle Eastern and Balkan cuisine. Baklava is a rich, sweet pastry made of layers of filo pastry filled with chopped nuts and sweetened with syrup or honey. It is characteristic of the cuisines of the former Ottoman Empire and much of central and southwest Asia. (quotes from Wikipedia)
The pronunciation used is correct in accordance with the Roman Latin spelling used, but actually as a Greek product, its spelling & pronunciation are different. The Greek pronunciation of "Phyllo" has the "y" sounding as "by, my, & why". Until today, I didn't know it was actually Greek. Now I know, I will not be using the incorrect spelling or pronunciation as done in this video.
Hi anyone here tell me where can i find this Filo dough in Malaysia?I am a chinese girl,i was taste from a turkish lesbenis restaurent...and i love it and try to make it for my first time,for youtube :))
During the Otthoman empire there was no such thing as a "Turkish identity" so if you need to time travel before you can say "Baklava is Turkish". Greeks and Turks made similar desserts and it's unclear who made them first but I think it's Greek cause FILO is greek altogether
wow I knew there was quite the process to making Filo, but I had no idea. Thanks for posting it was very interesting!
Pity the spelling & pronunciation of the Greek pastry are both incorrect.
this is really interesting, have not yet seen a recipe for this on net. thanks for sharing this valuable info.

Now I understand why it’s so costly in the supermarket
i like it
so that's what they were making in Kenjis video
Some factual errors here and there, but this is a great video. I enjoyed the detailed explanation.
Whats wrong?
The spelling & pronunciation of the Greek pastry, for a start.
I thought beef wellington was made with puff pastry.
If only it were that easy
The pronunciation used is correct in accordance with the Roman Latin spelling used, but actually as a Greek product, its spelling & pronunciation are different.
The Greek pronunciation of "Phyllo" has the "y" sounding as "by, my, & why".
Until today, I didn't know it was actually Greek.
Now I know, I will not be using the incorrect spelling or pronunciation as done in this video.
Tobo?
hehe its sure looking that way.
Shame. I was hoping to make a beef wellington tonight, but its clearly not happening :/
wow phyllo is much healthier than puff pastry
i need the name of the machine: 1:02 - 1:17
This machine to Big in home
Hi anyone here tell me where can i find this Filo dough in Malaysia?I am a chinese girl,i was taste from a turkish lesbenis restaurent...and i love it and try to make it for my first time,for youtube :))

Baklava was introduced in the 60s and 70s to Greek, it’s not Greek, it comes from Ottoman Turks, which got it from Arabian cities (around Syria)...
for youtube*
sorry from youtube

No, PHYLLO is Greek.
FILO is Roman Latin.
@@alancharlton7892 There is no such word in Latin language, Filo is the phonetic spelling of Phyllo. Both are Greek
MmMmMmMm¡¡¡¡ Baklava
