Sunsets to Remember

Indulge your senses in the flavors of Santorini with a culinary journey through its vibrant gastronomic scene.

From fresh seafood caught daily by local fishermen to traditional Greek dishes bursting with flavor, the island offers a feast for the senses at every turn.

Be sure to sample local specialties like tomatokeftedes (tomato fritters), fava (split pea puree), and freshly-caught grilled octopus paired with a glass of crisp Assyrtiko wine, produced from grapes grown in Santorini's volcanic soil.

With its stunning beauty, unforgettable sunsets, delicious cuisine, and romantic ambiance, Santorini truly is a dream destination for making perfect memories that will last a lifetime!

Irresistible Greek Baklava: A Recipe for Sweet Delight

If you can’t make it to Greece, why not Indulge your sweet tooth with the irresistible flavors of baklava, a beloved dessert that has captivated taste buds for centuries.

With its layers of flaky pastry, crunchy nuts, and sweet honey syrup, baklava is a treat that delights the senses and leaves you craving more. Let's dive into the steps for creating this delectable dessert right in your own kitchen.

Here's what you need:

1 package (16 ounces) phyllo dough, thawed
1½ cups chopped nuts (such as walnuts, pistachios, or almonds)
1 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup water
½ cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: additional chopped nuts for garnish

Here's how you do it:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish with butter.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped nuts with cinnamon and set aside.
Unroll the phyllo dough and place it on a clean surface. Cover it with a damp towel to prevent it from drying out while you work.
Take one sheet of phyllo dough and brush it generously with melted butter. Repeat this process with several more sheets, stacking them on top of each other.
Sprinkle a layer of the nut mixture evenly over the buttered phyllo sheets.
Continue layering phyllo dough and nuts until you have used up all the ingredients, finishing with a top layer of phyllo dough.
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the baklava into diamond or square shapes, being careful not to press down too hard.
Bake the baklava in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
While the baklava is baking, prepare the honey syrup. In a saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, water, honey, and vanilla extract. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, until slightly thickened.
Once the baklava is finished baking, remove it from the oven and immediately pour the hot syrup over the top, allowing it to soak into the layers.
Allow the baklava to cool completely before serving. For an extra touch of indulgence, garnish with additional chopped nuts if desired.
Serve and enjoy this sweet delight with friends and family, savoring each bite of flaky pastry, crunchy nuts, and sticky-sweet syrup.

With its heavenly combination of flaky pastry, crunchy nuts, and sweet honey syrup, homemade baklava is sure to impress and delight your taste buds.

So why not roll up your sleeves, gather your ingredients, and treat yourself to the irresistible flavors of this classic dessert?

Whether enjoyed as a special treat or shared with loved ones, baklava is guaranteed to bring joy and sweetness to any occasion.
