Makin' Strudel


Thought I should post a photo of our Strudel making on Christmas Day. This is a special recipe that is a Fidlin Family tradition. Steve's grandma, who is 87 years old, used to make these a lot when Steve's dad was young. Most people would call these pocket sandwiches, but for some reason, they were named "strudel". It is bread dough wrapped around a mixture of ground beef seasoned with lots of all spice seasoning and sauerkraut. Then they are baked until they are golden brown. We all love them, but they are a bit unusual. I don't know that everyone would like the flavor combination. We made 25 of them on Christmas morning and then we made another 35 "pizza pocket" sandwiches today. We bake them all in batches and then freeze them in bags of 5 for quick and easy meals.
