Kataïfi is a traditional Greek pastry made with nuts on the inside and soaked in a sugar or honey syrup.

When I make Kataifi, I mostly use walnuts, unless I have almonds that I need to get rid of. Walnuts are my favorite, but then again, I am a stickler for tradition. Walnuts are the nut my family always uses, and I find that I prefer it. I have also used a combination of walnuts and almonds in a pinch. The last time I made it, I ran out of walnuts and had to use crushed almonds so that I can have the correct proportion of nuts in the mixture.

I like using walnuts and then adding pistachios on top for decoration because they're so colorful

When baking great sweets like kataifi and baklava, my family always uses walnuts. Sometimes I'll add some almonds in a pinch, or I'll add them in if I have some I feel need to get used. But we love the flavor and texture of walnuts best.
