#Burek (also known as Borek) is a thin crust pie filled with cheese, minced meat or vegetables that is believed to have its origins in Turkey before it was brought to Serbia and other Balkan countries. #Galas popular burek is filled with locally made ricotta and feta cheese. While the dough is mixed by machine, it needs to be hand tossed and layered; a process that sees the burek master nimbly fling the dough around his upper body and stretch it transparently thin to the size of a small table, all without any holes or rips.

Celebrate this Easter with a heart filled with love and peace. Have a blessed and wonderful Easter!

Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl ...until evenly moistened.

Set aside. #Stir cream cheese and sugar with a wooden spoon in a large bowl until evenly incorporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour milk into cream cheese mixture and whisk until just combined. #Whisk in eggs, one at a time, stirring well after each addition. Stir in lemon zest, orange zest, and sour cream mixture; whisk until just incorporated. Pour mixture into prepared springform pan. #Bake in the preheated oven until the edges have nicely puffed and the surface of the cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour. When the cheesecake is done, turn off the oven and let it cool in the oven for 3 to 4 hours. This prevents any cracks from forming on the top of the cheesecake. Enjoy #GalaBakery See more
