Everything was going great. I was letting the baklava cool as instructed. After boiling the syrup for 10 minutes, discarding the orange peel and Cinnamon stick, I poured the syrup on top of the baklava, and RUINED it. I am so disappointed. I wasted time and money on this. It made a very hard candy topping (not a syrup and it didn't taste good at all. Please fix this recipe.

Great recipe until I got to the part of cutting into 28 pieces at the 30 minute cooking point.
What a mess !!!....Cut before any cooking, cut down about half way into it. I like the suggestion from another post that said to refrigerate before cutting.

This is the worlds best baklava in my opinion. It is worth the time that it takes to prepare. It is decadent and a definate crowd pleaser. I served it at a Christmas party and there were a few people who had never tried in before and were instantly hooked.

This is an exquisite baklava, and better than any baklava I have ever tasted, ever. It got an enthusiastic reception from the crowd I served it to, who had the choice of many desserts at our buffet, including the typical baklava recipe I could find online. I ran out of walnuts from the other baklava I made and substituted hazelnuts (chopped and roasted and it worked just fine.

I make this at Christmas and have since I saw the show. My oldest daughter loves it so much she has requested it for her birthday instead of a cake!
Easy to follow and comes out very good, each time I make it everyone devours the whole pan. Alton Brown Has made Baklava available to everyone! I add a bit more spice than is called for we just like it that way, I made it the exact way the recipe calls for the first time and it was amazing as is.

I was pleasantly surprised how good it was. I prefer a more Eastern style of baklava (Turkey or Lebanon. I found a really good online bakery - yes you guessed it www.baklava.com

I never thought Baklava would EVER be in my little box of recipe index cards, until I watched this episode late one night. Watching and learning from Mr. Brown's instructions through all these years gave me the courage to attempt this dessert that I thought could only be perfected in a Greek bakery, if not Greece itself. The directions may look long, but they really are not, esp. if you had caught that episode. Thank you Alton, not only for this recipe of course, but for being one of the only Chef's on television for not only showing your viewers step by step, BUT for explaining all the'' hows and whys'' Does that make sense? On top of it, we also get a bit of a history leson as well. : With warm regards, Susan
