NAZOOK (SWEET PERSIAN PASTRY)
Nazook is a rich Persian pastry which is not too sweet, and wonderful with tea or coffee. I developed this version while trying to reproduce a commercial product from a bakery in Salem, OR. I think mine is much better. This is definitely not for people who are watching their fat intake.

Steps:
- Mix 1 cup sour cream, 2 teaspoons sugar, and yeast together in a bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes. Mix in egg, vinegar, and oil.
- Pour 3 cups flour into a large bowl. Cut in 1/2 cup butter, working it into the flour until mixture is the consistency of meal. Stir in sour cream mixture until dough comes together.
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface; knead until smooth but still slightly tacky, about 10 minutes. Cut dough into 4 pieces and wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix melted butter, 2 1/2 cups sugar, and vanilla extract together in a very large bowl to make filling. Stir in 4 cups flour. Beat in egg whites.
- Roll a piece of dough into an 8x12-inch rectangle on a lightly floured work surface. Crumble 1/4 of the filling mixture on top, leaving a 1/2-inch border on the long sides. Cover filling with plastic wrap; flatten out with a rolling pin. Roll dough into a tight roll, starting with one of the long sides.
- Cut roll into 2-inch pieces at a slight angle. Arrange pieces on a rimmed baking sheet. Push tops down gently to flatten slightly. Repeat with remaining 3 pieces of dough and filling.
- Whisk egg yolks and yogurt together to make glaze. Brush glaze over pieces of dough.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool before serving, about 15 minutes.

NAZOOK OR CHOREG (ARMENIAN SWEET PASTRY)
Over coffee with my Armenian/Chaldean/Lebanese/Iraqi/ "brothers" this is perfect. Rich and not overly sweet. Note: Mahleb is a spice made from ground cherry pits. Sev gundeegs are tiny black seeds that have a faint anise flavor. Both are available in grocery stores that sell Middle Eastern or Greek foods. T.J.

NAZOOK (ARMENIAN PASTRY)
I took this recipe from Hilda (someone in the net!) and posted it here because I couldn't find on Recipezaar an accurate recipe for this delicious Armenian pastry! Loads of fat and calories in them but absolutely worth it! (Preparation times includes 5 hours to refrigerate the dough).

Steps:
- Dough: Add yeast to the sour cream and mix inches Set aside for 10 minutes. Combine flour, salt and butter and mix with your hands until crumbly. Add egg, vegetable oil, lemon juice and sour cream and mix well. Knead the dough, over a floured surface, for 5 minutes, or until no longer sticky. Add more flour if necessary. Form into a ball, mark with an "+", symbolizing a cross. Cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 5 hours, or overnight.
- Filling: Mix melted butter and flour until combined. Add sugar, walnuts, vanilla and cardamom. Stir until the mixture is smooth.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Assembly: Melt 3 tablespoons of butter and set aside. Remove dough from refrigerator; divide into 8 equal portions. Roll each dough ball into a 10 x 6" rectangle. Brush with melted butter. Spread 1/8th of the filling over each rectangle, leaving 1/2" border. Cover with a piece of parchment paper. Roll over it lightly with a rolling pin, so that the filling adheres to the dough. Fold the edges in 1/2" over the filling. Roll into a cylinder. Gently flatten with the palms of your hands.
- Cut each roll into 6 pieces and arrange on 2 greased cookie sheets. Brush liberally with the egg glaze. Bake for 35 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy with a hot cup of tea!
