Apfelstrudel

Paper-thin hand-pulled pastry around sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon, raisins, and buttered breadcrumbs. Baked golden. Served warm with vanilla sauce or cream. One of the great achievements of Austrian pastry. The Cafe Tomaselli version, in the oldest coffee house in Austria, has a particular authority.

Topfenstrudel

The sister dish to Apfelstrudel. Curd cheese (Topfen), raisins, lemon zest in hand-pulled pastry. Creamy and rich where Apfelstrudel is tart and fruity. Often the better choice.
