What a wonderful read! I have particularly fond associations with Baklava relating to my favorite Greek restaurant, Grecian Gyro. Both of my parents would often take me there if we were in the area. I particularly liked this bit at the end: [Regarding the dispute over the origins of Baklava]: >However, Efkan Güllü, the master baklava baker from Gaziantep, prefers to look at it another way. >“These are places that have historically been interconnected and have been on the same trade routes,” he says. “But also, more fundamentally, it means that we cook in similar ways.” Their shared histories are reflected in their recipes, with each baker adding new, local flair to an ancient classic, like layers upon layers of sweet pastry.
