National Baklava Day

National Baklava Day, celebrated on 17th November, is a day dedicated to indulging in the sweet, flaky, and decadent pastry known as baklava. Originating from the Middle East and Mediterranean regions, baklava is made from layers of thin filo dough, filled with a mixture of chopped nuts—such as pistachios or walnuts—and sweetened with syrup or honey. The rich, buttery flavour and satisfying crunch of baklava make it a favourite dessert in many cultures around the world.

While the exact origins of baklava are debated, it has become a beloved treat that transcends cultural boundaries, often served at celebrations, festivals, and family gatherings. Whether it’s the traditional recipe or modern variations with added flavours like chocolate or fruit, baklava continues to be a symbol of culinary artistry and indulgence.

National Baklava Day is the perfect excuse to savour this iconic dessert, try your hand at making it from scratch, or explore different regional versions. Whether you’re a fan of the classic pistachio-filled baklava or enjoy experimenting with new ingredients, this day is all about celebrating the sweet, crispy layers that make baklava irresistible.
