Qazvin Baklava Gallery
The city of Qazvin, located in central-northern Iran (just south of Tehran), features a baklava that is prepared with layers of different nuts arranged to replicate the colors of the Iranian flag: green pistachios, white/beige walnuts and red/brown almonds (reddened with saffron). In Qazvin baklava the nuts are crushed more thoroughly than in most other recipes, almost into a fine powder.
