KARIDOPITA (GREEK NUT CAKE)

This recipe was from my Yia Yia (Grandmother in Greek). This was served as a traditional holiday cake. Usually around Christmas time. My only advice for you is if you have never before made a syrup glaze, find a recipe for a simple one and practice first. And I prefer to use Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum or a decent spiced Cognac.

  • Use an electric mixer to mix the sugar and butter; mix at medium-high speed for at least 5 minutes, until smooth and creamy. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, whilst continue mixing; wait each time for each egg to be absorbed, before adding the next. Pour in the cognac and the orange zest and mix for 10 more seconds. Set aside.
  • Into a large bowl, add the chopped walnut, the powdered Melba toast, the cinnamon, the clove, the nutmeg, the baking powder and blend with a spoon. (Chop the walnut, using a blender, but be careful not to powder it; the authentic greek walnut cake calls for roughly chopped walnuts.)
  • Place the egg whites into the bowl of the electric mixer, along with a pinch of salt. Make sure your egg whites, bowl and whisk attachments are clean and free of any water. Whisk the egg whites until the mixture is very thick and glossy and a long trailing peak forms when the whisk is lifted (meringues).
