About This Program

Strudla

It takes a practiced hand to make tissue-thin dough but there's a simple trick to rolling it up for strudla. German Russian cooks lay the fragile dough on a cloth draped over a pillow. Then, when the ends of the cloth are lifted, the dough automatically curls up to create the many-layered ropes of strudla. Fried up with potatoes and onions, strudla is a Sunday dinner favorite.
