In the East, the sweets have always been held in high esteem. They here and now many, and they are very different. Some of the traditional Oriental desserts we see daily on the shelves of our stores, but to truly experience the magic of the culinary arts of the East, and to appreciate it fully, you can only visit the world-famous Oriental bazaars, with their thousands of shops and boutiques, coffee shops and tea rooms. The dough is "kadayif" the most popular for cooking Oriental treats (this is phyllo dough, sliced very thin, like the hair.). The first time he saw "kadayif", wondering how such a thing can be done? Sweets made from this dough to resemble anything but pastries. Plexus thin filaments can be mistaken for a birds nest, for a bundle of dried seaweed, for the work of the hands of the sculptor of a hundred Avangarde, but after trying this incredible treat, you are convinced that it is truly a masterpiece, not art, and cooking. Kadayif or, in other words, kataifi (and kanafeh), has spread from Arab countries to Central Asia and even reached the Balkans. Earlier this delicacy was only a privilege of the rich, they were made for the sultans and their harems. Today the products of this test has spread among ordinary people, but they still cannot be called the daily dish, they are called to decorate the dining table and impress guests!
