Actually, Baclava is Turkish. This is due to the long Oriental influence in the area. Greece and Romania have such a long common history too, that most of the dishes are the same. We also have these grape leaves stuffed with rice and vegetables and minced meet that we consider truly Romanian, in Greece they consider them truly Greek. Romania and Greece are mainly Orthodox Christian and that's why they had so much history together.Originally posted by luckies4me
Baklova is a Romanian pastry is it not? I am part Romanian and I have always thought it was a Romanian pastry. I love it!
Luckies4me, you're partly Romanian? I am Romanian too
