Unfortunately, I am posting this a few days late due to work and school conflicts with our cooking. This is actually our first "official" challenge and "The Boy" and I were both somewhat intimidated by the thought of hand making phyllo. As it turned out it was not that difficult to do and was a lot of fun to make. Not sure I was that happy with the results but this was the first time with the dough. So with any further ado, on with the photos.
We cut the dough into 16 roughly equal parts before rolling them out.
Rolling out the dough very thin took some practice and I think that we could get it thinner next time. It was very stretchy and seem to work well stretching it by hand.
Butter, walnuts and spices sprinkled on the rough cut dough. I used a sheet of printer paper as a basic template.
Coiled Baklava.
Soaking in honey and sugar syrup.
