Where does baklava come from?
The origin of Baklava is Turkey. There is strong evidence that it is of Central Asian Turkic origin, with its current form being developed in the imperial kitchens of the Topkapı Palace in the Ottoman Empire. Layered breads used to be created by ancient Turkic peoples in Central Asia, and thin phyllo dough as used today was developed in the kitchens of the Topkapı Palace. Indeed, the Ottoman Sultan used to present trays of baklava to the Janissaries every 15th of the month of Ramadan in a ceremonial procession called the Baklava Alayı. The word baklava also entered English from Turkish; the Arabic name is doubtless a borrowing from Turkish.
