All of the different shapes of baklava

[nadellii]

Traditional Greek baklava is usually cut into triangles or squares, but there are many more very popular versions such as the round and rolled up ones. All baklava is pretty much exactly the same, only the shape is different. This video shows you all of the unique variations. I know that the video is in Turkish, but baklava is exactly the same no matter what country it comes from. These different shapes are definitely a little more difficult to make, and you'll need to be a bit more handy with the filo dough.

I find that it is similar but different in other countries. I noticed that in Turkey pistachios are used a lot, and I don't see pistachios that much in Greek versions. I usually see walnuts (the most common) and almonds (not as common, but I have seen it). Interesting video!
