Nazook or Choreg (Armenian Sweet Pastry)
Over coffee with my Armenian/Chaldean/Lebanese/Iraqi/ “brothers” this is perfect. Rich and not overly sweet. Note: Mahleb is a spice made from ground cherry pits. Sev gundeegs are tiny black seeds that have a faint anise flavor. Both are available in grocery stores that sell Middle Eastern or Greek foods. T.J.
Nazook, Buttery Armenian Streusel-Stuffed Pastries
This is my grandmother Nina’s recipe and yields about 4 dozen cookies, which seems like a lot, til you taste one, then it won’t be enough!
Spanakopita, Armenian Style
Delicious traditional recipe. A little more cheesy than the typical recipe. I have included more detailed instructions on rolling the filo into triangles, for those who haven’t used filo before. It can be tricky. I teach my friends to fold the triangles by practicing on a napkin to get the hang of the triangle fold. PS. Contrary to Tarra’s opinion, there is NO comparison between filo and puff pastry, and ricotta has almost no taste…similar to cottage cheese!
Armenian Stuffed Grape Leaves
These are meatless and served cold with lemon. Another one where you might need a partner. A good appetizer for a party!
