This was my 1st attempt at making baklava. I already had nuts hanging around the kitchen, so, I decided to mix the almonds with pistachios. I didn't have the 1 1/2 lbs this recipe called for, so, I used half the amount. ( 4oz almonds and 4 oz pistachios and it was enough to do 6 layers using 1/3 of a cup mixture between each ) I also put them into a coffee grinder for almost a ''coffee grind'' texture. The only other small thing I had to change was the lemon. I didn't have any fresh lemon, so, I just put a few dashes into the syrup. It's a long process, but, it was worth every minute!!!
