Austrian Chocolate Topfenstrudel

This is very quick and easy, but oh so delightful. If you can’t get hold of curds (quark) you may use ricotta instead. I usually serve with berry jelly (rote Grütze). You might add rum soaked raisins to the filling, that’s a matter of preference. You might want to prepare real Strudel pastry, see recipe 466452 for how to make that…

Savory Meat Strudel

I have a friend in Duxbury, MA, who used to describe herself as the “hamburger queen.” This recipe was concocted for her to show her that ground meat can not only be truly tasty, but also elegant, exotic and fit for company… This recipe is Bohemian in origin. You may substitute commercial puff pastry, if desired, although it will change the texture and make the results much heavier. Fussing with the phyllo is worth the time and effort.

Sour Cream Apple Strudel

Scrumptious strudel…the filling is divine, and the flaky pastry crust is amazing. Prep time is an estimate and does not include chilling pastry overnight.

Birnen – Nuss Strudel – Austrian Pear and Walnut Strudel

A wonderful Austrian pastry, allthough not as famous as it’s cousin, the Apple Strudel. To make the dough used to be a difficult process; it needed to be rolled out so thin that you could read a newspaper through it! Luckily, today we have puff pastry available; to make a strudel is easy as pie. Use pecans or hazelnuts instead of walnuts and whatever jam you like. Serve at room temperature, dusted with confectioners sugar and whipping cream on the side.
