Yes, the sugar syrup acts as a preservative too.<br /><br />Lena<br />No, it won't turn soft, it'll be a bit 'ngan'. Like Shaz said, can keep long if refrigerated. Fillo pastry can be used to make strudel too. It's paper thin, so must be careful not to tear it when assembling the pastry.Sokehah cheahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03403730656141016627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691106519714857637.post-56760704261058328282011-10-11T21:18:09.628+08:002011-10-11T21:18:09.628+08:00cheah, looks so nutty.

But the texture will get a little bit hard. You can always reheat it. Yum.

Mine didn't last long as I made only a mini portion.<br /><br />Sonia<br />It's my first time too!<br /><br />Martyna<br />Yes, this version is more healthy.<br /><br />Dzoli<br />Thanks for the tips. Mine wasn't too sweet and the syrup was just enough to be evenly distributed.<br /><br />Jeannie<br />Yes, have to be very careful when assembling it as it's so thin and turns brittle very fast.Sokehah cheahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03403730656141016627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691106519714857637.post-48133804513891118342011-10-10T21:52:10.410+08:002011-10-10T21:52:10.410+08:00I have always been fascinated with the way baklava...I have always been fascinated with the way baklava is assembled, seen a couple of videos on them in fact. you did yours so neatly...it must be a feat taking a piece out without breaking it! looks scrumptious!Jeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517771659910444299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691106519714857637.post-54405713760357075842011-10-10T20:01:50.172+08:002011-10-10T20:01:50.172+08:00I make baklava but mine is much lower tahn your to...I make baklava but mine is much lower tahn your tower;)) It is relatively easy and the msot important thing is to cut it in pieces befor eyou bake it as afterwards it will be all over the place.And amount of syrup you are pouring on it also very important it is just right as you dont want too litle they will be dry..not too mcuh they will drown:)<br />Your look just right:))Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691106519714857637.post-52124112536145662472011-10-10T19:10:34.645+08:002011-10-10T19:10:34.645+08:00I like baklava but not too often because I find it...I like baklava but not too often because I find it sickly sweet, so when I saw that you reduced tha mount of sugar and used oils instead of butter in your recipe I really liked it! <br /><br />Wholesome Cook recently posted: <a href="http://wholesomecook.wordpress.com/2011/10/09/day-9-rainbow-doodle-jelly/" rel="nofollow">{Day 9} Rainbow Doodle Jelly!!!</a>Martyna@WholesomeCookhttp://wholesomecook.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691106519714857637.post-26582186032731050852011-10-10T18:08:15.101+08:002011-10-10T18:08:15.101+08:00never eaten this before, look yummy!never eaten this before, look yummy!Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Loverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05419159376275343283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691106519714857637.post-60053471760756781492011-10-10T17:42:09.997+08:002011-10-10T17:42:09.997+08:00Cheah, I love this Baklava, so nutty and crispy bu...Cheah, I love this Baklava, so nutty and crispy but how long can I keep (in a fridge)?ann lowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12203098783181636146noreply@blogger.com
