June 17th marks National Apple Strudel Day, granting us a delightful reason to savor this sweet treat. Apple strudel, a Viennese dessert, comprises thinly rolled dough sheets filled with apples, sugar, and various spices. Renowned globally, it's relished both as a breakfast item and an evening dessert, often paired with coffee or tea during snack time. Enhance its flavor with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of icing sugar/cinnamon. While known as 'Apfelstrudel' in Austria, this dish can also take on a savory twist by replacing apples with spinach, cabbage, or other vegetables and herbs. The term 'strudel,' derived from German, translates to whirlpool or eddy.
