A few weeks ago, I was kneading up pumpkin bread; this morning, mixing up a batch of rice-flour pumpkin muffins for a grateful wheat-free friend. The kids are carving their pumpkins out on the porch, and I'm planning for tomorrow's dinner, a grand stew served out of a stunning \u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/search?q=Rouge+Vif+d%E2%80%99Etampes+pumpkin&safe=off&client=firefox-a&hs=5NY&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=vatuUp_PJeTWiAKhnoGICA&ved=0CCwQsAQ&biw=1423&bih=1002#q=Rouge+Vif+d%27Etampes+pumpkin&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&safe=off&spell=1&tbm=isch\">Rouge Vif d'Etampes pumpkin\u003c/a>, the flattish, deeply indented beauty, as flaming red-gold as \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_Holloway\">Joan's burnished tresses\u003c/a> on Mad Men. It's also known as the \u003ca href=\"http://www.allaboutpumpkins.com/varieties.html#cinderella\">Cinderella pumpkin\u003c/a>, with good reason, since it seems to lack only six white mice to pull it straight into fairy godmother-land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a little more dainty, if not quite so dramatic, to serve your pumpkin stew or soup in individual, bowl-sized pumpkins rather than one huge one, I'll admit. Whichever you use, prep them like you're getting ready to entertain the trick-or-treaters: saw out a generous circle around the top, reach in and scoop out what you can of the stringy, seedy stuff, and set it aside. Then, get a big metal soup spoon, and scrape out all the remaining stringy bits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separate the seeds from the pumpkin innards, and rinse the seeds well. Pat dry, then spread out on a baking sheet. Toss with enough olive or vegetable oil to coat lightly, then sprinkle with salt and paprika, smoked paprika, or chili powder, adding in a little cayenne if you like. Bake at 325 F until crisp and toasty, about 15 to 20 minutes. These are great for snacking, naturally, and also make a nice garnish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(If you have backyard chickens, toss them the pumpkin guts and any stray raw seeds that escaped the pick-through. They'll snaffle them up like candy corn.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But we're getting distracted here from the main event. To prep your pumpkins, put your big (or your little pumpkins) and their tops on a baking sheet covered with parchment or foil. Rub a little vegetable oil over the flesh. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove top(s), turn pumpkins bottom side up, and continue baking for another 25-35 minutes, depending on size, until flesh is tender but firm and pumpkin still holds its shape. It's important not to wander off during this time, as the pumpkin shells will collapse if they're overbaked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, what do you want to put in your pumpkins? If you're going to all the trouble of scooping and baking these babies, what's in them should be the main course, I believe. Which means something rich and stew-like, not the usual pashmina-smooth, curried or apple-y bisques. In the Bay Area, the skeletons and jack o' lanterns of Halloween are always interwoven with the sugar skulls and marigold-strewn altars of the Mexican Day of the Dead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So why not use goat as a base for this stew, a traditional meat for the latter--and, with their spooky eyes and devilish implications, a perfectly haunting choice for Halloween, too. Halal meat counters and Latino markets are good places to find goat; you can also find it at Marin Sun Farms' butcher shop in Rockridge Market Hall. You could also substitute lamb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Happy Halloween!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Halloween Pumpkin Stew \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIf you're going to serve this in one large pumpkin or squash, make sure you pick out a good eating one, such as a rouge vif d'etamps or a musquee de provence. Both are wider than they are tall, an important consideration. Make sure the one you pick will fit in your oven before you start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Serves:\u003c/strong> 6\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1 large, shallow pumpkin or squash, or 6 small bowl-sized pumpkins, prepared and baked as above\u003cbr>\n2 1/2 lbs goat or lamb, cubed\u003cbr>\n2 tbsp flour\u003cbr>\n1 tsp chipotle powder or smoked paprika\u003cbr>\n1/2 tsp salt\u003cbr>\n2 tbsp olive oil\u003cbr>\n1 onion, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped\u003cbr>\n2 carrots, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n2 celery stalks, diced\u003cbr>\n1 tsp thyme or oregano\u003cbr>\n1 bay leaf\u003cbr>\n1 cup red wine\u003cbr>\n2 dried ancho chilies, soaked in hot water until soft, seeds and stems removed, pureed in a little hot water until smooth, or 2-3 canned chiles in adobo, finely chopped\u003cbr>\n1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes (I use Muir Glen's fire-roasted organic tomatoes)\u003cbr>\nRoasted pumpkin seeds, for garnish\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1. Toss flour, paprika, and salt together, and spread out on a wide, shallow plate. Roll goat or lamb cubes through flour mixture to coat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In a heavy Dutch oven or wide, heavy saucepan, heat olive oil. Add meat in batches, browning on all sides over medium-high heat. Remove and set aside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. When meat has been cooked, add onions, garlic, celery, and carrot. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until softened but not browned. Return meat to pot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Pour red wine over meat and vegetables. Add chiles, diced tomatoes, and thyme or oregano. Add water if necessary so that liquid comes half-way meat and vegetable mixture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Bring mixture to a simmer, reduce heat, and cover. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender and liquid is reduced, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Taste for seasoning, and add salt and pepper as needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Preheat oven to 350 F. Pour stew into prepared pumpkin(s). Bake for 30-40 minutes, until pumpkin flesh is tender and stew has thickened a bit. Taste for seasoning. Remove from oven carefully, since it will be hot and heavy. Replace lid and bring to the table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Pass pumpkin seeds at the table for garnish. Scoop out a portion of cooked pumpkin with each serving, being careful not to pierce the skin.\u003c/p>\n\n",

A few weeks ago, I was kneading up pumpkin bread; this morning, mixing up a batch of rice-flour pumpkin muffins for a grateful wheat-free friend. The kids are carving their pumpkins out on the porch, and I'm planning for tomorrow's dinner, a grand stew served out of a stunning \u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/search?q=Rouge+Vif+d%E2%80%99Etampes+pumpkin&safe=off&client=firefox-a&hs=5NY&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=vatuUp_PJeTWiAKhnoGICA&ved=0CCwQsAQ&biw=1423&bih=1002#q=Rouge+Vif+d%27Etampes+pumpkin&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&safe=off&spell=1&tbm=isch\">Rouge Vif d'Etampes pumpkin\u003c/a>, the flattish, deeply indented beauty, as flaming red-gold as \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_Holloway\">Joan's burnished tresses\u003c/a> on Mad Men. It's also known as the \u003ca href=\"http://www.allaboutpumpkins.com/varieties.html#cinderella\">Cinderella pumpkin\u003c/a>, with good reason, since it seems to lack only six white mice to pull it straight into fairy godmother-land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a little more dainty, if not quite so dramatic, to serve your pumpkin stew or soup in individual, bowl-sized pumpkins rather than one huge one, I'll admit. Whichever you use, prep them like you're getting ready to entertain the trick-or-treaters: saw out a generous circle around the top, reach in and scoop out what you can of the stringy, seedy stuff, and set it aside. Then, get a big metal soup spoon, and scrape out all the remaining stringy bits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separate the seeds from the pumpkin innards, and rinse the seeds well. Pat dry, then spread out on a baking sheet. Toss with enough olive or vegetable oil to coat lightly, then sprinkle with salt and paprika, smoked paprika, or chili powder, adding in a little cayenne if you like. Bake at 325 F until crisp and toasty, about 15 to 20 minutes. These are great for snacking, naturally, and also make a nice garnish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(If you have backyard chickens, toss them the pumpkin guts and any stray raw seeds that escaped the pick-through. They'll snaffle them up like candy corn.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

To prep your pumpkins, put your big (or your little pumpkins) and their tops on a baking sheet covered with parchment or foil. Rub a little vegetable oil over the flesh. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove top(s), turn pumpkins bottom side up, and continue baking for another 25-35 minutes, depending on size, until flesh is tender but firm and pumpkin still holds its shape. It's important not to wander off during this time, as the pumpkin shells will collapse if they're overbaked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, what do you want to put in your pumpkins? If you're going to all the trouble of scooping and baking these babies, what's in them should be the main course, I believe. Which means something rich and stew-like, not the usual pashmina-smooth, curried or apple-y bisques. In the Bay Area, the skeletons and jack o' lanterns of Halloween are always interwoven with the sugar skulls and marigold-strewn altars of the Mexican Day of the Dead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So why not use goat as a base for this stew, a traditional meat for the latter--and, with their spooky eyes and devilish implications, a perfectly haunting choice for Halloween, too. Halal meat counters and Latino markets are good places to find goat; you can also find it at Marin Sun Farms' butcher shop in Rockridge Market Hall. You could also substitute lamb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Happy Halloween!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Halloween Pumpkin Stew \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nIf you're going to serve this in one large pumpkin or squash, make sure you pick out a good eating one, such as a rouge vif d'etamps or a musquee de provence. Both are wider than they are tall, an important consideration. Make sure the one you pick will fit in your oven before you start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Serves:\u003c/strong> 6\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1 large, shallow pumpkin or squash, or 6 small bowl-sized pumpkins, prepared and baked as above\u003cbr>\n2 1/2 lbs goat or lamb, cubed\u003cbr>\n2 tbsp flour\u003cbr>\n1 tsp chipotle powder or smoked paprika\u003cbr>\n1/2 tsp salt\u003cbr>\n2 tbsp olive oil\u003cbr>\n1 onion, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped\u003cbr>\n2 carrots, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n2 celery stalks, diced\u003cbr>\n1 tsp thyme or oregano\u003cbr>\n1 bay leaf\u003cbr>\n1 cup red wine\u003cbr>\n2 dried ancho chilies, soaked in hot water until soft, seeds and stems removed, pureed in a little hot water until smooth, or 2-3 canned chiles in adobo, finely chopped\u003cbr>\n1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes (I use Muir Glen's fire-roasted organic tomatoes)\u003cbr>\nRoasted pumpkin seeds, for garnish\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1.

When meat has been cooked, add onions, garlic, celery, and carrot. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until softened but not browned. Return meat to pot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Pour red wine over meat and vegetables. Add chiles, diced tomatoes, and thyme or oregano. Add water if necessary so that liquid comes half-way meat and vegetable mixture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Bring mixture to a simmer, reduce heat, and cover. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender and liquid is reduced, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Taste for seasoning, and add salt and pepper as needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Preheat oven to 350 F. Pour stew into prepared pumpkin(s). Bake for 30-40 minutes, until pumpkin flesh is tender and stew has thickened a bit. Taste for seasoning. Remove from oven carefully, since it will be hot and heavy. Replace lid and bring to the table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Pass pumpkin seeds at the table for garnish.

At 9:30 last night in Concord, you could still get a paper plate of baklava or syrup-drenched loukoumas, a glass of red wine, a lamb sandwich or some garlicky Greek potatoes. The band was still playing, and a loose circle of dancers, hands joined, were revolving around the floor. Someone was doing a brisk business in glow-stick light sabers, seen waving from the hand of every child under 10. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were tchotchkes for sale, carved wooden items, bits of painted pottery, t-shirts, the ubiquitous Zorba-style black fisherman's caps, but, judging by the vast sea of white plastic tables set up under the tent, food (and wine) was the point here. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A whole lamb was roasting on a spit next to one booth, ready to be turned into plates of lamb, lamb sandwiches, lamb dinners with rice and salad. There were booths for fried calamari, for gyros, for souvlaki on a stick. Several bars offered a selection of Greek wines, along with a few local wines made by Greeks. Made from the Assyritko grape, the Hatziyiannis white wine from Santorini was beautifully golden, with notes of honeysuckle and peaches. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The place to get the real deal, though, was inside, where the ladies of Philoptochos, the church's good-works organization, were earning their place in heaven by dishing out generous platefuls of roast lamb, moussaka, pastitsio (baked macaroni), baked chicken, stuffed eggplant, stuffed peppers, dolmas (stuffed grape leaves), green beans with tomato, and more. For under twenty bucks, we got a cup of feta cubes, a cup of kalamata olives, a hefty square of moussaka, cinnamon-scented ground beef layered with eggplant and potatoes under a thick layer of creamy bechamel sauce, some sesame bread, and an enormous lamb shank braised with tomato. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We cleaned up the moussaka, feta, and olives in no time; the lamb shank we picked at, then realized that what it really needed was to go home with us, destined to be the centerpiece of a thrown-together rainy-day soup. The next day, into the pot it went, with sauteed onions, celery, carrots, and garlic, some tomatoes from the garden, sage and thyme, some soaked and parboiled white beans, a few chunks of potato, a glug of wine and just enough water to cover. A long, slow simmer, and last night's dinner becomes tonight's, and probably tomorrow's, too. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we paid for our plate, I asked the woman making change if all the food was made here. Oh yes, she told me, they've been working for months, chopping, cooking, and freezing. It's the church's 32nd annual festival, and by now they've got it down. \"I call us the YaYa Sisterhood, you know, because \"yaya\" means grandmother in Greek,\" she said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over at the pastry stall, we hear the same thing: all volunteers, working for months. I ask the woman handing us our baklava and kataifi if she was one of the bakers. \"No, I'm a runner!\" she laughed. \"The bakers are these 85-year-old women. I call them 'the machines'--their hands move boom-boom-boom, so fast! Me, I run for them--I run to get the butter, I run to put the trays in the oven, I run to take them out. It's exhausting, but it's easier.\" She's working on her own baklava, though. First try, the nuts--too big. Second try--too small. So she's getting up her courage for round three, sure to be the charm. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, I don't know if my own baklava would pass the yaya test, but I can tell that there's nothing like freshly made baklava, made with lots of nuts, honey, and butter, the pastry crackling and shiny with syrup infused with cinnamon or orange. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The best way to get the consistency of the nuts right is to chop them by hand, handful by handful, on a heavy cutting board with a big knife. You want them rough and nubbly, and even one pulse too many in the food processor will turn them to powder. If you don't already have a pastry brush, get one before you start. There's a lot of buttering that needs to happen, and while you could use your fingertips or the back of a spoon in a pinch, a pastry brush is neater and does a much more consistent job. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Baklava\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trick to getting the perfect balance of sticky and crisp (rather than stolid and soggy) is to have the syrup and pastry at opposite temperatures when they meet. Either pour hot syrup over cold pastry, or pour cold syrup over hot pastry. Let the syrup soak into the pastry for a few hours before serving. The baklava is best on the day it's made, but it will keep for a few days, if you can possibly resist it for that long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find frozen phyllo dough in the freezer aisle of most supermarkets, usually next to the puff pastry and frozen cakes. Let it defrost a little before you use it. Unroll the sheets carefully, and always keep a clean, barely damp dishtowel draped over the sheets while you're using them, to keep them from drying out and becoming crackly and hard to use. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nFor pastry:\u003cbr>\n2 1/2 cups walnuts, almonds, and/or pistachios, or a combination, finely chopped\u003cbr>\n2 tablespoons sugar\u003cbr>\n2 tablespoons honey\u003cbr>\npinch salt\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>One\u003c/em> of the following flavorings: 1 tsp grated orange or lemon peel and 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom; 1 teaspoon cinnamon and a pinch of ground cloves; 1 teaspoon rosewater; 1 teaspoon orange-flower water\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1/2 lb phyllo dough (half a standard package)\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup butter, melted\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Syrup:\u003cbr>\n1/3 cup sugar\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup honey\u003cbr>\n2 tsp lemon juice\u003cbr>\n1/3 cup water\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>One\u003c/em> of the following flavorings: 1 tablespoon grated orange rind; 1 cinnamon stick; 1 tablespoon rosewater or orange-flower water\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nPreparation:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1. Preheat oven to 325F. Lightly grease an 8-by-8-inch baking pan. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In a small bowl, mix nuts, honey, sugar, salt, and your choice of flavoring. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Unfold phyllo dough and trim into 8-by-8-inch squares. Spread a sheet over the bottom of the baking pan. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush sheet with melted butter. Repeat with 5 more sheets, lightly buttering each sheet before adding the next. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Spread half of the nut mixture over the top phyllo sheet in the pan. Top with another four sheets, lightly buttering each sheet before adding the next. Rewarm melted butter slightly if it gets too thick. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Spread remaining nut mixture over the top phyllo sheet. Top with another 6 sheets, lightly buttering each sheet before adding the next. Lightly butter the top sheet. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Using a sharp knife, make four equal vertical cuts (about 1 1/2 inches apart) through the top layer of pastry. Then, make eight equally-spaced diagonal cuts (about 1 inch apart) across these strips to form 18 diamond shapes. There will be a few triangular pieces left over along the edges --perfect for the cook to snack on before serving!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until pastry is crisp and pale golden. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>8. While pastry is baking, make the syrup. In a small, heavy-bottomed pan, bring sugar, honey, water, and lemon juice to a boil. Keep a close eye on it, as it will tend to froth and foam up. Add orange rind or cinnamon stick if using. Over low heat, simmer for 5 minutes until syrup has thickened slightly. Remove from heat. If using rosewater or orange-flower water, add now. Pour into a pitcher and let cool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. When pastry is baked, pour cooled syrup over hot pastry. Alternately, let pastry cool to room temperature. Reheat syrup to almost boiling, then pour hot syrup over cooled pasty. You may not need all the syrup; you want the pastry to be glossy and sticky but not drowned. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>10. Following the previously made cuts, cut the pastry all the way through into diamonds. Let syrup soak in for at least 3 hours before serving. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.stdemetrios.ca.goarch.org/festival.asp\">Contra Costa Festival of Greek Food & Wine\u003c/a> continues through Sunday at the St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church, 1955 Kirker Pass Road, Concord, across from the Concord Pavilion.

For under twenty bucks, we got a cup of feta cubes, a cup of kalamata olives, a hefty square of moussaka, cinnamon-scented ground beef layered with eggplant and potatoes under a thick layer of creamy bechamel sauce, some sesame bread, and an enormous lamb shank braised with tomato. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We cleaned up the moussaka, feta, and olives in no time; the lamb shank we picked at, then realized that what it really needed was to go home with us, destined to be the centerpiece of a thrown-together rainy-day soup. The next day, into the pot it went, with sauteed onions, celery, carrots, and garlic, some tomatoes from the garden, sage and thyme, some soaked and parboiled white beans, a few chunks of potato, a glug of wine and just enough water to cover. A long, slow simmer, and last night's dinner becomes tonight's, and probably tomorrow's, too. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As we paid for our plate, I asked the woman making change if all the food was made here. Oh yes, she told me, they've been working for months, chopping, cooking, and freezing. It's the church's 32nd annual festival, and by now they've got it down. \"I call us the YaYa Sisterhood, you know, because \"yaya\" means grandmother in Greek,\" she said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over at the pastry stall, we hear the same thing: all volunteers, working for months. I ask the woman handing us our baklava and kataifi if she was one of the bakers. \"No, I'm a runner!\" she laughed. \"The bakers are these 85-year-old women. I call them 'the machines'--their hands move boom-boom-boom, so fast! Me, I run for them--I run to get the butter, I run to put the trays in the oven, I run to take them out. It's exhausting, but it's easier.\" She's working on her own baklava, though. First try, the nuts--too big. Second try--too small. So she's getting up her courage for round three, sure to be the charm. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, I don't know if my own baklava would pass the yaya test, but I can tell that there's nothing like freshly made baklava, made with lots of nuts, honey, and butter, the pastry crackling and shiny with syrup infused with cinnamon or orange. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The best way to get the consistency of the nuts right is to chop them by hand, handful by handful, on a heavy cutting board with a big knife. You want them rough and nubbly, and even one pulse too many in the food processor will turn them to powder. If you don't already have a pastry brush, get one before you start. There's a lot of buttering that needs to happen, and while you could use your fingertips or the back of a spoon in a pinch, a pastry brush is neater and does a much more consistent job. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Baklava\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trick to getting the perfect balance of sticky and crisp (rather than stolid and soggy) is to have the syrup and pastry at opposite temperatures when they meet. Either pour hot syrup over cold pastry, or pour cold syrup over hot pastry. Let the syrup soak into the pastry for a few hours before serving. The baklava is best on the day it's made, but it will keep for a few days, if you can possibly resist it for that long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find frozen phyllo dough in the freezer aisle of most supermarkets, usually next to the puff pastry and frozen cakes. Let it defrost a little before you use it. Unroll the sheets carefully, and always keep a clean, barely damp dishtowel draped over the sheets while you're using them, to keep them from drying out and becoming crackly and hard to use. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nFor pastry:\u003cbr>\n2 1/2 cups walnuts, almonds, and/or pistachios, or a combination, finely chopped\u003cbr>\n2 tablespoons sugar\u003cbr>\n2 tablespoons honey\u003cbr>\npinch salt\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>One\u003c/em> of the following flavorings: 1 tsp grated orange or lemon peel and 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom; 1 teaspoon cinnamon and a pinch of ground cloves; 1 teaspoon rosewater; 1 teaspoon orange-flower water\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1/2 lb phyllo dough (half a standard package)\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup butter, melted\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Syrup:\u003cbr>\n1/3 cup sugar\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup honey\u003cbr>\n2 tsp lemon juice\u003cbr>\n1/3 cup water\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>One\u003c/em> of the following flavorings: 1 tablespoon grated orange rind; 1 cinnamon stick; 1 tablespoon rosewater or orange-flower water\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nPreparation:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1. Preheat oven to 325F. Lightly grease an 8-by-8-inch baking pan. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. In a small bowl, mix nuts, honey, sugar, salt, and your choice of flavoring. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Unfold phyllo dough and trim into 8-by-8-inch squares. Spread a sheet over the bottom of the baking pan. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush sheet with melted butter. Repeat with 5 more sheets, lightly buttering each sheet before adding the next. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Spread half of the nut mixture over the top phyllo sheet in the pan. Top with another four sheets, lightly buttering each sheet before adding the next. Rewarm melted butter slightly if it gets too thick. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Spread remaining nut mixture over the top phyllo sheet. Top with another 6 sheets, lightly buttering each sheet before adding the next. Lightly butter the top sheet. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Using a sharp knife, make four equal vertical cuts (about 1 1/2 inches apart) through the top layer of pastry. Then, make eight equally-spaced diagonal cuts (about 1 inch apart) across these strips to form 18 diamond shapes. There will be a few triangular pieces left over along the edges --perfect for the cook to snack on before serving!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until pastry is crisp and pale golden. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>8. While pastry is baking, make the syrup. In a small, heavy-bottomed pan, bring sugar, honey, water, and lemon juice to a boil. Keep a close eye on it, as it will tend to froth and foam up. Add orange rind or cinnamon stick if using. Over low heat, simmer for 5 minutes until syrup has thickened slightly. Remove from heat. If using rosewater or orange-flower water, add now. Pour into a pitcher and let cool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. When pastry is baked, pour cooled syrup over hot pastry. Alternately, let pastry cool to room temperature. Reheat syrup to almost boiling, then pour hot syrup over cooled pasty. You may not need all the syrup; you want the pastry to be glossy and sticky but not drowned. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>10. Following the previously made cuts, cut the pastry all the way through into diamonds. Let syrup soak in for at least 3 hours before serving. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.stdemetrios.ca.goarch.org/festival.asp\">Contra Costa Festival of Greek Food & Wine\u003c/a> continues through Sunday at the St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church, 1955 Kirker Pass Road, Concord, across from the Concord Pavilion.
