EASY RECIPE FOR TURKISH FLOUR 'HELVA'
Steps:
- Combine the sugar, milk, and water in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Stir it occasionally until the sugar is dissolved then turn off the heat. If you decide to add optional flavoring like vanilla, rose water or lemon zest, stir it into the hot milk mixture.
- Melt the butter in a large, shallow pan. When the butter is bubbly, add the flour all at once. Work the butter all the way through the flour using a wooden spoon.
- Reduce the heat to low. Stir the flour and butter mixture by turning it over with the wooden spoon. Do this continuously over very low heat for at least 15 minutes. The flour should slowly turn golden brown and take on a toasted aroma. Make sure to turn the mixture over evenly and be care not to let it brown too quickly.
- When the flour is ready, turn off the heat. Add the milk and sugar mixture all at once and let it bubble up. Stir the liquid through the flour as it's bubbling. Continue to stir the mixture as it cools down. The helva will begin to bind together and form a ball. It should be soft but firm and take on a shiny texture.
- While the ball of helva is still hot, you can shape it as you wish. You can use a large spoon to make oval-shaped individual helva, or you can press the helva down in a shallow serving dish. When it's cool, you can cut it into squares.
- Toast the pine nuts by turning them over in a small, nonstick pan over high heat. Press a pine nut on the top of each spoon helva, or press them evenly in a pattern over the top of flat helva.

THE ORIGINAL TURKISH HALVA
This is the original recipe for Irmic Halva. In Turkey, it is the desert of choice when it comes to any large get-together because of it's simplicity. For a creamier version, substitute milk for water. Personally, I find the milk version too heavy. The serving size really depends on how much you want. Enjoy!
