    Long, thinly shredded kadaifi dough comes boxed like filo sheets, but alas, it is not as easy to find. Most specialty Greek and Middle Eastern groceries carry it. If you can't find kadaifi, you can shred filo dough very, very thin yourself, being careful to keep the shreds straight for ease in working.
