Flour Halva (with Walnut)
I always say that whenever I prepare something that smells so bad, I think of my grandmother in the kitchen. I went into the kitchen this morning before I started work to commemorate him and all that we lost on the occasion of the oil lamp.
As the smell of halva faded, my grandmother's white cardigan, which she knitted herself, was turning left and right in the small kitchen, and I could see her squeaky messes. And my grandfather waiting for us in the living room.
Anyway, when I talk about these issues too much, I turn out to be watery-eyed. For this reason, I come to how I shape halvah right away.
The mold I use is called the kömbe mold. Kömbe is also a local cookie, just like we cut cookies with cookie cutters now, they used to press and shape into this mold in the past.
The brewed and warmed halva is already very suitable for shaping, it is enough to break off 1 piece with a spoon or with your hand, press it into the mold and remove the halva by tapping the mold lightly on the plate.
I bought the mold from Tahtakale a long time ago. You can find at least 3-4 different varieties there.
May everyone be blessed.
Love…

Is this boiled plain or is it sugar and water? What if I put 2.5 glass of 1 glasses of water as milk?
The water will be boiled plain, it may be nice to add milk. Yours sincerely
I reduced the oil to half of the measure you gave me, and I cut down on the sugar a little. It was perfect as it is. By the way, yes, it is better to boil water and sugar together. You can also try it with milk. In my opinion, the main ingredient is water.
looks yummy
water and sugar will boil together, I guess it was forgotten at the time of writing. Maybe it's a different recipe. I could not fully understand
Thank you very much ladies. We all hope… Love…

Hello, instead of white flour, "wheat flour" is called wheat, I think it is also called black flour, is it okay if I use it? thanks
Happy candles. May the souls of all those we have lost rest in peace, may God have mercy on them. Flour halva looks amazing. Especially Kerebiç's heart is full of love, my dear.
You reminded me that whenever I wanted dessert, my grandmother would get up and make flour halvah, may God have mercy on all our dead. Your hands look very good, may God accept it, I wish you good candles.

Hello,
First of all, I wish you a blessed candle and health to your hands. I was very touched when I read what you wrote. I also thought of my grandmother, whom we sent off to eternity in the summer. He also loved flour halva, it was even his will to us, he wanted us to make flour halva after his death.
May my Lord put all our loved ones, whom we sent off to eternity, to sleep in light, and make their place heaven.
May Allah (CC) have mercy on the souls of all our dead and have mercy inshallah. Whenever my grandmother comes to mind, I cannot hold back my tears like strings. I am a very crying kid. I also use this flour halva as spoon halva. Kömbe mold is also used as kahke mold in Antep Hatay mrsin region, we pour this halva with a normal spoon.
