Baklava is shared across the Middle East and Mediterranean, so you'll see Greek baklava, Turkish baklava, and Arab versions, each a little different. Ours is Iraqi-style: paper-thin filo (also spelled phyllo) pastry layered with fresh pistachios and walnuts and our family's honey syrup. Whatever you call it, it's the baklava our family has baked since 1919.
