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).

Steps:
- Dough: Add yeast to the sour cream and mix inches Set aside for 10 minutes. Combine flour, salt and butter and mix with your hands until crumbly. Add egg, vegetable oil, lemon juice and sour cream and mix well. Knead the dough, over a floured surface, for 5 minutes, or until no longer sticky. Add more flour if necessary. Form into a ball, mark with an "+", symbolizing a cross. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 5 hours, or overnight.
- Filling: Mix melted butter and flour until combined. Add sugar, walnuts, vanilla and cardamom. Stir until the mixture is smooth.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Assembly: Melt 3 tablespoons of butter and set aside. Remove dough from refrigerator; divide into 8 equal portions. Roll each dough ball into a 10 x 6" rectangle. Brush with melted butter. Spread 1/8th of the filling over each rectangle, leaving 1/2" border. Cover with a piece of parchment paper. Roll over it lightly with a rolling pin, so that the filling adheres to the dough. Fold the edges in 1/2" over the filling. Roll into a cylinder. Gently flatten with the palms of your hands.
- Cut each roll into 6 pieces and arrange on 2 greased cookie sheets. Brush liberally with the egg glaze. Bake for 35 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy with a hot cup of tea!

Steps:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the flour and mix in the yeast and salt.
- Add the butter, and mix on low until the mixture gets crumbly.
- Add the egg, oil, lemon juice, and sour cream and mix until incorporated.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and mix by hand for five minutes. Alternatively, you can mix with the dough hook for about three minutes (this is what I did).
- Place the dough into an oiled bowl or container, cover, and refrigerate for 5 to 12 hours.
- Mix the flour, sugar, walnuts, and cardamom in a medium/large bowl.
- Stir the vanilla into the melted butter, and pour the mixture over the flour mixture. Stir with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until the mixture is smooth. It will get crumbly as it cools. This is fine.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F with a rack in the middle. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. I used a scale.
- Cover the dough pieces you are not working with with plastic wrap (I placed the ones I was not working with back in the refrigerator.
- Working with one piece of dough at a time, roll the dough out between two pieces of parchment paper (I also lightly floured the parchment) into a 10 inch by 6 inch rectangle. Spread 1/8 of the filling over the rectangle, leaving a 1/2 inch border.
- Fold the border over the filling (see photo above) and, starting with the longer side, roll the dough into a log. Lightly flatten the log with you hands.
- Using a bench knife, cut the log into 6 pieces and place them on the parchment lined baking sheet. Continue with the rest of the dough pieces. Each baking sheet should hold 24 pastries. Once one baking sheet is filled, brush each pastry with the egg wash and bake them while you assemble the rest of the nazooks on the second baking sheet.
- Bake, one sheet at a time, for 30 to 35 minutes, until golden brown.
NAZOOK (SWEET PERSIAN PASTRY)
Nazook is a rich Persian pastry which is not too sweet, and wonderful with tea or coffee. I developed this version while trying to reproduce a commercial product from a bakery in Salem, OR. I think mine is much better. This is definitely not for people who are watching their fat intake.

Steps:
- Mix 1 cup sour cream, 2 teaspoons sugar, and yeast together in a bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes. Mix in egg, vinegar, and oil.
- Pour 3 cups flour into a large bowl. Cut in 1/2 cup butter, working it into the flour until mixture is the consistency of meal. Stir in sour cream mixture until dough comes together.
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface; knead until smooth but still slightly tacky, about 10 minutes. Cut dough into 4 pieces and wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix melted butter, 2 1/2 cups sugar, and vanilla extract together in a very large bowl to make filling. Stir in 4 cups flour. Beat in egg whites.
- Roll a piece of dough into an 8x12-inch rectangle on a lightly floured work surface. Crumble 1/4 of the filling mixture on top, leaving a 1/2-inch border on the long sides. Cover filling with plastic wrap; flatten out with a rolling pin. Roll dough into a tight roll, starting with one of the long sides.
- Cut roll into 2-inch pieces at a slight angle. Arrange pieces on a rimmed baking sheet. Push tops down gently to flatten slightly. Repeat with remaining 3 pieces of dough and filling.
- Whisk egg yolks and yogurt together to make glaze. Brush glaze over pieces of dough.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool before serving, about 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Make the dough:.
- Mix sugar and yeast in a small bowl. Add lukewarm water and mix. Set aside until frothy, ~2-3 minutes.
- In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and sugar.
- Measure the rest of the dough ingredients into a bowl and add the butter mixture.
- Stir and knead for 5-10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal portions, shape each into a ball, wrap each in plastic.
- Chill in the fridge for 6 hours.
- Make the filling:.
- Add a teaspoon of sugar to a small mortar and pestle, add the saffron threads and crush them to a powder.
- Then steep in hot water, maybe 5 minutes.
- In a clean bowl, measure the dry ingredients for the filling.
- Cut butter into the dry ingredients using a fork or your clean hands to a sandy consistency.
- Add the vanilla, then steeped saffron.
- Put it all together:.
- Remove dough from fridge and set aside to warm to room temp, 15-20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 325 F, then immediately reduce temperature to 300°F.
- Make the glaze by beating together one egg and a splash milk in a small bowl.
- Lightly dust a rolling pin and clean surface with flour.
- Unwrap one of the dough balls and roll it out to about 1/8th inch thickness.
- Sprinkle a couple tablespoons of the filling over the dough and gently press filling into the dough with the rolling pin.
- Roll the dough over from one end to the other end, carefully tucking it the filling in to form a log.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Transfer the stuffed dough log to the baking sheet.
- Using a sharp knife, cut log into about 6 pieces.
- Repeat the process with another dough ball, leaving about 1/2-inch of space between the cookies as they will plump up in the oven.
- About 3 dough balls/logs will fit onto a standard cookie sheet.
- Brush the tops of the nazook with egg + milk glaze and bake for roughly 20 minutes, until golden brown.
- These pastries are best when eaten fresh from the oven. Store them in a metal cookie tin for a couple of weeks. Nazook also freezes well. Anoush!

NAZOOK OR CHOREG (ARMENIAN SWEET PASTRY)
Over coffee with my Armenian/Chaldean/Lebanese/Iraqi/ "brothers" this is perfect. Rich and not overly sweet. Note: Mahleb is a spice made from ground cherry pits. Sev gundeegs are tiny black seeds that have a faint anise flavor. Both are available in grocery stores that sell Middle Eastern or Greek foods. T.J.
