Directions
Nazook (Armenian Pastry), I took this recipe from Hilda (someone in the net!) and posted it here because I couldn’t find on Recipezaar an accurate recipe for this delicious Armenian pastry! Loads of fat and calories in them but absolutely worth it! (Preparation times includes 5 hours to refrigerate the dough) , So I was browsing the net to compare recipes to my nazook recipe was in the mood to try something different Imagine my surprise when I came across your recipe, which is actually a recipe from my cookbook, Mom’s Authentic Assyrian Recipes Although you did give me partial credit by using my first name, thought I’d fill in the blanks for those wanting to know more or to purchase the book Glad you enjoyed the recipe God Bless!, I been seeing this yummy looking pastry online for quite sometime now and have not got a chance to make them until now This is quite good This is not sweet enough for me I will add a little bit more sugar next time The filling is very good and the pastry itself is very pretty although mine don’t like the one in the photo I will definitely make this again Thank you for posting It was such a treat for all soul’s day
