Kadayifi is the pastry reached for when a dessert needs texture as well as sweetness. This is the shredded, thread-like dough used across Middle Eastern and Mediterranean baking, sold here in a 200g pack under the Alibaba Dubai name. The strands are dry and fine, ready to be pulled apart by hand before use. In the kitchen, kadayifi is layered or rolled around fillings such as cheese, nuts or cream, then baked until golden and crisp. It is the pastry behind knafeh, and it also works in rolled nut-filled sweets finished with a sugar syrup poured over once baked. Handle the strands gently, as they separate easily and work best when loosened before layering. Buttering or oiling the pastry helps it crisp evenly in the oven. Any syrup should be added straight after baking, while the pastry is still hot, so it soaks in properly. Once opened, keep the pack sealed and stored in a cool, dry place to stop the strands drying out further or breaking down. Use within a reasonable time after opening for the best texture when baked.
