Ehara te Baklava i te hua e ngāwari ana te muru. Ka kī tika atu ahau i tēnā. He ngawari. He taumaha mō tōna rahi. Ka rumakina ki te pata me te tirikara. Ka pakaru mēnā ka tirohia he. Ā, ko tētahi o ngā kai tino nui o te ao e pā ana ki te kare ā-roto—ka tukuna ki ngā marena, ka kohaina i te wā o te Ramadan, ka tukuna puta noa i ngā moana ki ngā mema o te whānau e ngaro ana i te reka o te kāinga. Kāore tetahi e hoatu noa i tētahi pouaka baklava ki tētahi. He mea nui te wā.
Koia te take he taumaha te pouaka e tāpirihia ana e koe te baklava ki roto—he tikanga, he tikanga whakarite hoki. Ko te pouaka ngoikore e hinga ana i raro i te taumaha o te phyllo paparanga, he pouaka rānei e kitea ana ngā paru hinu i te haora i muri i te tākai, ehara i te mea he kino noa iho te āhua. Ka whakararuraru i te wheako katoa. Ka kī atu ki te kaiwhiwhi, "Kāore i tika kia mahia tika tēnei."
Kua roa ahau e mahi ana i roto i te tākai kai, ā, ka taea e au te kī atu ko te baklava tētahi o ngā hua e wehewehe ana i ngā kaihanga pouaka whānui mai i ngā tohunga tūturu. Mā te kimi i tētahi kaihanga pouaka baklava e tino mārama ana ki te hua ka rerekē te tirohanga a te iwi ki tō waitohu. Anei ngā mea me mōhio koe.
Tērā pea ka miharo koe he aha e kore ai e taea te tono noa i ngā pouaka keke noa, i ngā pouaka kai whānui rānei, kātahi ka mutu. Heoi anō, he pouaka tonu te pouaka. I whakaaro pērā anō hoki ahau i mua. Kātahi ka kite ahau i te mea ka puta ina tūtaki te baklava ki te takai hē.
Ko te take tuatahi ko te hinu. Ka rumakina te Baklava ki te pata, ki te ghee rānei. Ka heke taua ngako i roto i te pepa pepa i roto i ngā hāora, ka waiho he paru pouri, kāore e reka ki waho o te pouaka. He maha ngā wā kāore he ārai mō tētahi pouaka whānui—ahakoa he pouaka kounga teitei i hangaia mō ngā keke maroke—e ārai ana i tēnei. Ka hangaia e tētahi kaihanga pouaka baklava motuhake he paninga ātete-ngako ki roto i te hanganga pouaka mai i te tīmatanga. Ka ārai te paninga i te hinu kia kore e uru, ka noho ma te taha waho, kia reka hoki mō ngā rā, mō ngā wiki rānei, ehara i te hāora.
Ko te tuarua o ngā take ko te taumaha. He matotoru te Baklava. Ka taea e te paepae e 12 ngā wahi te taumaha i te kirokaramu, neke atu rānei. Ka piko te pouaka e pai ana mō ngā croissant, ngā pihikete rānei i raro i taua taumaha. Ko ngā pouaka baklava motuhake e whakamahi ana i te papa matotoru ake, ngā kokonga kua whakapakaritia, me ngā hoahoa hanganga e tohatoha ōrite ana i te taumaha. Ka mau tonu te āhua o te pouaka ahakoa kei runga i te kaute, kei roto i te pouaka whakaaturanga, kei te tukuna rānei puta noa i te motu.
Ko te tuatoru o ngā take ko te pakaru. He pakarukaru ngā paparanga phyllo. He mahi toi te paparanga o runga o tō baklava—he paparanga pai, he koura, he ātaahua. Mā te takai whānui e taea ai e te hua te neke haere i te wā e kawe ana ka pakaru taua paparanga ātaahua. Kei roto i ngā pouaka motuhake he whakauru, he hoahoa piripono rānei hei pupuri i ia wahi ki tōna tūranga, hei ārai i te nekehanga e puta ai te kino.
I
Ina kōrero koe ki tētahi kaihanga pouaka baklava, ko te whiriwhiri rauemi tetahi o ō pātai tuatahi. Ko ngā rauemi tika te mea e rerekē ai te takai e pai ana te mahi me te takai e kore e pai.
Ko te papa ātete-hinu te tūāpapa. He maha ngā āhua o tēnei. Ko ngā paninga wai te mea tino noa—he ārai angiangi e pania ana ki te mata o roto e aukati ana i te hekenga o te hinu. Mō te baklava taumaha ake, pata ake, ka kaha ake te tiaki mā te raina PE (polyethylene) me te raina PLA (polylactic acid). Ka tukuna e ētahi kaihanga he pepa ātete-hinu motuhake kua pania ki te papa. He rerekē te utu me te mahi o ia kōwhiringa, ā, ka āwhina te kaihanga pai i a koe ki te whakataurite i te ārai ki tō hua motuhake.
Mō te hanganga o te pouaka tonu, ko te papa maramara pakari kua takaihia ki te pepa toi te whiringa tino pai. He taumaha, he pakari, ā, ka puta te "tangi" whakamīharo ina whakatakotoria ki runga i te tēpu. Mō ngā paepae tunu taro me ngā hokohoko o ia rā, he pai ake te utu o te kātene takai teitei me te paninga ātete-hinu, engari he pai tonu te tiaki. He mea nui te matotoru o te papa—pātai atu mō te GSM (karamu ia mita tapawha). Mō te baklava, me hiahia koe kia 350 GSM te iti rawa mō ngā kātene takai, me te 800+ GSM mō ngā pouaka pakari.
Me aro atu hoki ki ngā kiriata matapihi. Mā te matapihi ka kitea e ngā kaihoko ngā paparanga kanapa o te phyllo me ngā pistachio tapatapahi—he taputapu hokohoko kaha tēnā. Engari me kounga te kiriata mō te kai, me piri pūmau, ā, me ārai i te kohu kia kore ai e pōuri te tirohanga. Ko te PVC paerewa te mea iti rawa te utu engari kei te piki haere te whakahē a ngā kaihoko e aro nui ana ki te taiao. Ka taea te whakawairakau i ngā matapihi PLA, ā, he pai te mahi. Ko ētahi waitohu ka karo katoa i te matapihi, ka whakamahi i tētahi whakaahua hua ataahua i runga i te pouaka.
Kei te tukuna atu hoki e mātou ngā kōwhiringa whakaotinga pēnei i te āhua kanapa me te āhua matte, hei hoatu i te pa whakamutunga ki ngā pouaka monamona kua tāia ritenga. Ka taea e ēnei te tāpiri kanapa ki tō hoahoa, me te whakarato hoki i te tiaki tāpiri.
| Āhuatanga | Tono | Pānga Utu |

Ehara i te mea ko ngā rauemi anake te mea e whakaratohia ana e ngā hoa pai rawa atu o ngā kaihanga pouaka baklava—engari ko ngā whakaaro hoahoa anō hoki. Ko ngā kōwhiringa hanganga me ngā kōwhiringa ataahua e tukuna ana e rātou me whakarite kia rite ki te āhua o te hoko, te hoatu, me te kai i te baklava.
He mea nui te hoahoa o te tāpiri. Me wehea, me tiaki hoki ngā wahi Baklava. Mā te tāpiri kua hoahoatia pai—ahakoa he kāri kua whakapikohia, he penupenu kua whakakikoruatia, he PET rānei kua whakawerahia—ka pupuri i ia wahi i roto i tōna ake wāhanga. Mā tēnei ka ārai i ngā wahi kei piri tahi, ka tiaki i ngā paparanga o runga, ā, ka hangaia he whakaaturanga ataahua ina tuwhera te pouaka. Ka taea hoki te whakarite i ngā whakaritenga huatau: ngā porowhita porowhita, ngā tauira taimana, ngā rarangi ātaahua. Ehara i te mea he mahi noa te tāpiri—he wāhanga hoki o te wheako tirohanga.
Me āta whakaaroarohia te rahi me te hohonu. He rerekē ngā momo Baklava. He rerekē te momo tapawhā taimana mai i te toa tunu kai tuku iho o Turkey i te momo tapawhā mai i te paepae, i te tapawhā rānei mai i te paepae. Me hohonu te pouaka kia eke ki te teitei o ō momo, me te kore e kuru i te paparanga o runga. Me whakarite te rahi kia pai te uru o ngā momo, me te kore e akiakihia. Ka pātai te kaihanga pai mō ngā rahi me ngā hoahoa motuhake o tō momo.
Ko te wheako whakatuwheratanga he mea nui ake i te nuinga o te tangata e mōhio ana. Ka hangaia he ahua whakanui i roto i te pouaka pakari me te kati aukume—ka āta hiki ake te taupoki, ka whakakitea te baklava me te mea he whakaaturanga. Ka paheke te pouaka ahua pouaka ki te taha whakapae, he mea ohorere, he mea ahuareka hoki. Ka hangaia he momo whakaaturanga rerekē e te taupoki hononga e tuwhera ana me te mea he pukapuka. Ka huri ia kōwhiringa i ngā whakaaro o te kaiwhiwhi mō ngā mea o roto. Kōrerohia ēnei kōwhiringa ki tō kaihanga, ā, whiriwhiria te mea e rite ana ki te tuakiri o tō waitohu.
Haere ki roto i tētahi toa tunu taro o te Rawhiti o Waenganui, i tētahi toa kai motuhake rānei, ka titiro ki te wāhanga baklava. He aha tāu e kite nei? Koura. He nui te koura. He whero pea. He tuhituhi ā-Arapi. He tauira āhuahanga. He ataahua, engari he kī tonu hoki. He rite tonu te āhua o ia waitohu ki ia waitohu kē atu.
Mā te kaihanga pouaka baklava mohio koe e āwhina ki te wehe atu i taua āhua ōrite, me te noho pono ki te taonga tuku iho o te hua. Ko te mahi nui ko te kimi i te taurite i waenga i te tikanga tuku iho me te motuhaketanga.
He tīmatanga pai te tae. Ka noho tonu te koura me te whero hohonu, engari whakaarohia te kikorangi pouri, te whero whero momona, te mangu matte rānei hei kōwhiringa e pai ana te ahua, engari e tū motuhake ana i te moana koura. He ataahua te whakaahua o ēnei tae, ā, he ātaahua te āhua i runga i te tēpu koha. Tāpirihia ēnei ki tētahi āhuatanga tuku iho—he tauira āhuahanga ngawari kua whakairohia ki te papa, he taha angiangi o te pepa koura—ā, kua whiwhi koe i te takai e whakahonore ana i te tikanga tuku iho, engari kāore e uru ki te mano.
He mea tino nui te momotuhi. He tino ataahua te tuhituhi Ārapi, engari ki te mea kei roto i tō mākete whāinga ngā kaihoko o te Hauāuru kāore e taea te pānui, ka huri hei toi whakapaipai kaua ki te whakawhitiwhiti kōrero. He maha ngā waitohu e hono ana i te tuhituhi Ārapi me te tuhituhi Ingarihi ma, e whakamahi ana i te Ārapi hei wāhanga tirohanga ataahua, me te whakarite kia taea te pānui i te ingoa o te hua. Me taea e tō kaihanga te whakahaere i te tānga reo maha me te tino tika—me mārama, me tika hoki te whakarite o ngā tuhituhi e rua.
Kei roto i te pouaka te wāhi e hangaia ai e ngā waitohu ngā wā whakamiharo. Tāia he kōrero poto ki roto i te taupoki—"E toru ngā whakatipuranga o te tunu baklava a tō mātou whānau ki Gaziantep" me "He tino pai ki te kai me te kawhe kaha o Turkey." Tāpirihia he kōrero iti mō te hanga o te baklava, ngā kai i whakamahia, me pēhea te penapena. Ka kitea, ka maumaharatia, ka tohaina ēnei taipitopito.
H2: Te Haumaru Kai me te Whakatutukitanga ki tētahi Kaihanga Pouaka Baklava
Koinei te wāhanga koretake o te takai, kāore te tangata e harikoa ki tēnei mea kia puta rā anō he hē. Koinā anake te mea ka taea e rātou te whakaaro.
He kai makuku, he kai momona te Baklava. Ko te tikanga he tino pāngia e ngā takai kāore i te haumaru mō te kai. Ka taea e ngā matū mai i ngā waituhi tā me ngā piripiri te heke mā roto i te papa me te tomo ki roto i te hua. He nui ake te mōrearea ki ngā kai momona nā te mea he maha ngā matū kino ka wairewa i te ngako. Ka aro atu tētahi kaihanga pouaka baklava haepapa ki tēnei me te aro nui.
Pātai atu mō ngā waituhi iti-heke. He mea hanga motuhake ēnei hei whakaiti i te whakawhiti matū mai i te tānga ki te kai. He nui ake te utu i ngā waituhi paerewa, koia te take kāore e whakamahia ana e ngā kaihanga utu iti. Ka whakaratohia e te kaihanga rongonui he tuhinga mō te haumaru o tā rātou waituhi. Pērā anō hoki mō ngā piripiri—me haumaru ngā piripiri e whakamahia ana i roto i te huihuinga pouaka ki te kai, ā, me iti hoki te hekenga.
Mā ngā tiwhikete ka whakamanahia. Ka hipokina e te ISO 22000 ngā pūnaha whakahaere haumaru kai. E mōhiotia ana te BRCGS (Brand Reputation through Compliance Global Standards) e ngā kaihokohoko o te ao katoa. Mena kei te kaweake koe ki Ūropi, me tutuki i a koe te EU Regulation (EC) Nama 1935/2004. Mō te mākete o Amerika, he mea nui te FDA mō te tutuki i ngā whakaritenga pā kai. Kei te wātea ēnei tiwhikete e te kaihanga tika, ā, ka tohaina e ia ki te hunga e hiahia ana ki te whakapuaki.
He mea nui anō hoki te whakamātautau i tō roa o te rokiroki. Ahakoa he tika ngā ārai me ngā rauemi haumaru, me whakamātautau tonu tō takai ki tō hua tuturu. Tākaihia te baklava ki roto i ngā pouaka. Rongoā kia rite ki tā ō kaihoko. Tirohia te hekenga o te hinu, te mimiti haunga, me te hanganga o te hua i roto i te wā. Ka tautoko te kaihanga takai pai rawa atu i tēnei whakamātautau mā te whakamahi i ngā tauira me ngā aratohu.
Kia whai whakaaro tātou ki te kimi me te mahi tahi me tētahi kaihanga pouaka baklava, nā te mea he uaua te tukanga rapu rauemi mena kāore anō kia mahia e koe.
Ko ngā rahinga iti rawa o ngā ota te arai tuatahi. He maha ngā wā e hiahiatia ana e ngā pouaka papai pakari te 500-1,000 waeine mō ia hoahoa. Ko ngā kātene whakapiko me te tānga mamati ka taea te hoko ki te 200-300 waeine. Mena he toa tunu kai iti koe, ko te tānga mamati tō hoa—he nui ake te utu mō ia waeine engari kāore he nui o ngā taonga e hiahiatia ana. I te tipu haere o tō rahinga, ka nui ake te ōhanga o te tānga whakawhiti.
Ko ngā wā ārahi te mea tuarua e whakaarohia ana. Ko te tikanga ka roa te whakaputa i roto i te 3-5 wiki i muri i te whakaaetanga tauira. Ka tāpirihia he 4-6 wiki mō ngā utanga moana mai i ngā kaihanga o tāwāhi. Ka tāpirihia he 1-2 wiki anō mō ngā tuku ki ngā tari tāke me ngā tuku ki uta. Ko te wā katoa: tata ki te 8-12 wiki. Mō Ramadan, koinei te wā baklava nui rawa atu o te ao, tīmata te whakamahere mō ngā marama 4-6 kei mua. He mea nui anō hoki te Kirihimete me te Diwali. Ko ngā kaihanga e tika ana kia mahi tahi me rātou ka tino pai te whakarite i ēnei wā.
Kāore e taea te whiriwhiri i te whakaaetanga tauira. Tikina he tauira tūturu i mua i te hanga. Tirohia te taumaha o te papa, te ārai hinu, te taunga o te whakauru, me te kounga o te tānga. Tākaihia te baklava tuturu ki roto i te tauira ka waiho kia noho mō ngā wiki e rua. Tirohia mēnā he paru, he haunga, he take hanganga rānei. Mā tēnei whakamātautau ka kitea ngā raruraru i mua i te nui o te utu mō te hanga.
Hei whakamutunga, kōrerohia ngā mahi whakahaere taonga ki tō kaihanga. Kāore ngā pouaka Baklava, inā koa ko ngā mea pakari, e whai hua ana te noho tahi ina huihuia. Pātai atu mō ngā kōwhiringa tākai papatahi. Mā te pouaka e tukuna papatahi ana, ā, ka huihuia ki tō whare, ka penapenahia he utu nui mō te uta. Ā, ki te mea kei te kawemai koe mai i tāwāhi, mahi tahi me te kaituku uta kaua e whakawhirinaki ki te utu tuku a te kaihanga. He nui ake te whakataetae a ngā kaituku uta motuhake.
Kei te whakamahi koe i te takai kāore he ārai hinu tika. Ka heke noa te pata me te tirikara o Baklava ki roto i te pepa pepa. Ko te otinga he paninga ātete-ngako i te roto o te pouaka—he ārai wai mō ngā hua māmā ake, he arai PE/PLA rānei mō ngā baklava taumaha ake, he pata ake. Pātai atu ki te kaihanga o tō pouaka mō ngā kōwhiringa ātete-hinu. Kātahi ka whakamātauria te takai me tō hua tuturu i mua i te ota katoa.
Ko te whakautu he tāpiri ritenga. Me noho ia wahi ki roto i tōna ake wāhanga, kia mau pai kia kore ai e neke i te wā e kawe ana. Ka tiakina hoki e te tāpiri ngā paparanga o runga ngawari mai i te kuruhia e te taupoki. Ko te penupenu i hangaia, te kātene kua whakapikohia, me te PET i hangaia ki te wera he rauemi tāpiri noa. Ka hangaia e te kaihanga pouaka baklava pai te tāpiri kia rite ki ō rahi wahi.
Ae, ā, he kōwhiringa mohio tēnei—he tino ataahua te baklava ki te titiro. Me tono he kiriata matapihi kounga kai me ngā āhuatanga ārai-kohu kia kore ai e whakapōuritia te tirohanga e te hauhautanga. Mēnā he hunga e aro ana ki te taiao, tonoa he kiriata PLA, he mea ka taea te whakawairakau. Me piri pūmau te matapihi; mēnā he matapihi e tihorea ana, ka āhua iti te utu o tō takai ahakoa te ataahua o te baklava.
He mea hanga te pouaka pakari mai i te papa maramara matotoru (te nuinga o te wā he 800-1200 GSM) ā, kāore e takai papatahi—he hanganga pakari, he pakari hoki kua takaihia ki te pepa whakapaipai. He āhua papai ngā pouaka pakari, ā, he pai mō te takai koha. He mea hanga te kātene takai mai i te papa angiangi (300-400 GSM), ka tukuna papatahi, ā, ka takai kia rite ki te āhua. He māmā ake ngā kātene takai, ā, he iti ake te utu mō te hokohoko o ia rā. Mō te baklava koha utu nui, ko te pakari te paerewa. Mō ngā hoko i runga i te kaute tunu taro, he pai te whakamahi i ngā kātene takai.
Tīmatahia te tukanga i te iti rawa 4-6 marama i mua i te tīmatanga o te Ramadan. E 11 ngā rā e nekehia ana te Ramadan i ia tau, nō reira tirohia te maramataka. E 3-5 wiki te roa o te hoahoa me te tauira. E 3-5 wiki te roa o te whakaputa. E 4-6 wiki te roa o te uta moana. Tāpirihia he 1-2 wiki anō mō ngā tikanga tuku me ngā tikanga tuku. E whā marama te iti rawa, ā, me ārai koe i ngā whakaroa ohorere. Ka tuhi wawe ngā kaihanga pai rawa atu mō te wā o te Ramadan—kaua e tatari kia tae ki te meneti whakamutunga.
