Steps:
- In a small saucepan, combine the honey, sugar, water, cinnamon and orange peel and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The syrup should thicken slightly. Remove from heat, set aside and let it cool.
- To prepare the filling, place the pistachio nuts and/or walnuts in a food processor and pulse several times until finely chopped but not pasty. Put the nuts in a bowl and combine with the sugar, breadcrumbs, cinnamon and cloves.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Prepare a 13"x 9"x 2" pan by brushing the sides and bottom with melted butter.
- Unroll the 14"x18" package of filo and, with a sharp knife, cut it in half length-wise, leaving you with two stacks of 14"x9" sheets of filo. You will only need one of the stacks, so roll up the other, wrap it tightly with plastic wrap, and return to the refrigerator.
- Place one sheet of filo on a clean surface with the longest side in front of you. Brush with some of the melted butter to coat. Place a second sheet of filo on top of the first and butter it again (keep the rest of the filo covered while you work so it won't dry out).
- Sprinkle some of the nut mixture along the side closest to you. Start rolling the filo as tight as possible without breaking. It should look like a long cylinder. If you get any holes, do not worry about it. With a serrated knife, cut the roll into 2-inch pieces and place on the prepared pan, seam side-down. Repeat with more filo, until all the nuts are used. Brush generously the top of the pistachio rolls with melted butter. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven.
- Pour the cooled syrup slowly and evenly over the top of the baklava. It might look like a lot of syrup initially, but it will all be absorbed as it cools down. Sprinkle with some finely minced pistachio nuts.
- Let the pistachio baklava rolls sit uncovered for at least 4 hours before serving.
- Over a double boiler (or in a microwave), gently melt the dark chocolate. Drizzle lightly over the cooled baklava and let it set for an hour before serving. (This step is optional)
PISTACHIO BAKLAVA
This Turkish-style baklava tastes deeply and richly of pistachio nuts and butter, without the spices, honey or aromatics found in other versions. It has a purity of flavor that, while still quite sweet, is never cloying. This very traditional recipe is from one of the most celebrated baklava shops in Istanbul. Feel free to substitute other nuts for the pistachios, particularly walnuts and hazelnuts. Or use a combination of nuts. Once baked, this baklava will last for several days, but it is at its absolute best within 24 hours of baking.

Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse the pistachios until coarsely ground (or you can chop them by hand until very finely chopped). Don't overprocess the nuts. You want to maintain some texture.
- Clarify the butter by melting it over low heat, then letting it cook until the foam rises to the top and the milk solids fall to the bottom of the pan. This will take about 5 to 15 minutes depending upon how high your heat is, but don't rush it or the butter could burn.
- Skim foam off the top of the melted butter. Line a fine-mesh sieve with a piece of cheesecloth, place it over a bowl and pour the melted butter through.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees and brush the inside of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with a little of the clarified butter.
- Prepare the phyllo dough by trimming the stack of it with scissors to fit the bottom of your baking dish. Packages of phyllo come in different sizes; some won't need any trimming, some may need an inch or two cut off a side, and some may need to be cut in half crosswise. Cover phyllo layers with a lightly damp kitchen towel, and keep covered.
- Place 1 piece of phyllo on the bottom of the baking pan; brush lightly with clarified butter. Layer phyllo sheets on top, brushing each sheet with butter as you go, until half the phyllo is used.
- Spread pistachios on phyllo in an even layer, then layer with remaining phyllo, brushing each sheet with butter as you go (rewarm butter if necessary).
- Cut the pastry into 36 pieces, using clean up-and-down strokes and rotating the pan if necessary. Make sure to cut all the way through to bottom of pan. Pour any remaining butter evenly over pan.
- Bake baklava until the top is golden brown, and the lower phyllo layers beneath the pistachios are thoroughly baked through. To test this, use a knife to lift up a corner of one of the pastry rectangles from the center of the pan so you can peek at the bottom layers. Start checking after 40 minutes, but it could take an hour or even 1 hour 10 minutes. If the top starts to get too brown before the pastry is cooked through, lay a piece of foil over the top.
- Meanwhile, prepare sugar syrup: In a medium pot, combine sugar with 1 2/3 cups/400 milliliters water. Bring to a boil, then let simmer for 10 minutes, until slightly thickened. Stir in lemon juice.
- When the baklava is baked through, reheat the syrup until it comes to a simmer. Remove pan from oven and place in the sink or on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any drips of syrup. Slowly pour hot sugar syrup over the pastry; it will bubble up and some may overflow. When the syrup stops bubbling, move pan to wire rack to cool completely. Serve at room temperature.

- Make the syrup first. Combine the sugar and water in a saucepan. Stir together and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add the vanilla extract and the rosewater. Stir together and set aside to cool completely.
- Note: Thaw the phyllo pastry overnight in the refrigerator. Set it at room temperature, in its packaging, for 1-2 hours. This will ensure that the phyllo will be easy to handle.
- While making the baklava rolls, if you come across 2 phyllo sheets that are stuck together, treat them as one sheet. It’s ok if a few of the baklava rolls contain 3 sheets. Attempting to separate the sheets might result in throwing both sheets in the trash.
