Welcome to the Root of All Broth! This is the show where we talk about the inspirations behind the foods we cook. Today we’re cooking a treat from my service in the Peace Corps, Banitsa. Banitsa is a flaky, cheesy, traditional breakfast pastry from Bulgaria. It is simple and there are many delicious variations such as tikva Banitsa made with pumpkin. I like to add sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon to make a sweet Banitsa too! Try this pastry from the memory of my days in the Peace Corps when my language trainer Vessi first taught me how to make it. • Remember there are people who are in need everywhere. • Please consider helping the hungry at: • Verniat Nastoinik: https://verniatnastoinik.org/en/about... • Joshua International: http://www.joshuainternational.org/ • Ingredients: • Canola Oil • Phyllo Dough 1 package • 7 oz Bulgarian Feta or Sirene (You may substitute Greek Feta) • 6 eggs • Milk • Sun-dried Tomatoes • 9 inch Springform Pan • Directions: • 1. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (176 degrees Celsius) • 2. Lay phyllo dough on counter on a piece of plastic or the wrapper it came in • 3. Dry and chop (if oil packed) sun-dried tomatoes • 4. Make the filling by combining three eggs, 7 oz. Sirene/Feta Cheese, and chopped tomatoes • 5. Grease Springform pan • 6. Begin rolling the dough by first adding a slight layer of oil to the phyllo dough sheet • 7. Add a small amount of the filling to the edge of the phyllo sheet • 8. Roll the sheet creating a long cigar like tube of the mixture (see video) • 9. In the Springform pan begin to make the center of the rose by turning the dough in on itself and creating a circular pattern (see video) • 10. Continue creating the rose pattern by oiling each phyllo sheet, adding more filling, and rolling each into a cigar like section. Add each section to the pan, so the new section covers the ends of the old (see video) • 11. Repeat steps 6 - 10 until you have filled the pan and the rose is complete • 12. Make the topping by whisking three eggs together with 3 tablespoons milk or cream • 13. Pour the topping onto the dough in the Springform pan. Touching up if necessary with a pastry brush. • 14. Cook the Banitsa in the oven for 35-40 minutes. You will know when it is done by the golden color. • 15. Enjoy!
