Persian Baklava
1 lb. blanched almonds or an almond/walnut combination
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. ground cardamom
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup water
1/2 cup rosewater
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 lb. filo, thawed
Finely grind the nuts. Add cardamom and sugar to the nuts. Cut
the filo to fit a 12x15" pan. Brush bottom of pan with butter and
add 6 sheets of filo, brushing each with butter. Sprinkle and
spread enough of the nut mixture until you've added about 1/8" to
the pan. Continue building layers with 3 sheets of filo(brushing
each with butter) to every 1/8" of nuts. Finish with 6 layers of
filo. Brush top with butter. Cut through all but the bottom layer
of filo in diamond shapes. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 25-30min.
While it's baking, boil the water and sugar for 15min. Remove from
heat and add rosewater. When the baking is done, pour the syrup
over the baklava.
