“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Glace' Baklava

 

Ingredients

1 karen mintzias
4 eggs
1 lb blanched almonds finely chopped
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 lb mixed glace' fruit finely chopped
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 lb phyllo pastry sheets
1 lb sweet butter, melted

SYRUP

3 cup sugar
2 cup water
1/2 lemon (juice only)
1 cinnamon stick



 

Preparation

Beat eggs until light. Fold in almonds and sugar. Stir in fruit.
Take 2 sheets of phyllo pastry, brush one at a time with melted
butter, and place one on top of the other. On the long end of the
phyllo sheet spread some of the fruit-and-nut mixture in a band about
1 inch wide. Fold in ends and roll like a jelly-roll. Place on a
cooky sheet and brush top with melted butter. Make diagonal slits
along the whole length, about 1 1/2 inches apart, being careful not
to cut all the way through. Continue making the rolls until all nut
mixture is used. Bake in a preheated 350 F oven for about 1 1/2 hours
or until golden brown. Cut pieces through entire roll. Dip hot
baklava pieces in cold syrup and drain well.

Syrup: In a saucepan, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil and
boil for 20 minutes. Cool.
