Servings: persons

Dough:
2 cups sifted bread flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 tablespoons oil
1/2 cup lukewarm water
Filling:
1 cup melted butter
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
5 lbs or more tart apples, peeled and sliced thin
1 1/2 cups golden raisins
1 cup currents
1 1/2 cups ground pecans
1 cup cinnamon sugar
Sprinkling of salt
Powered sugar for dusting

1
Combine all of the dough ingredients and mix. Knead on a floured board until the dough will not stick. Pound the dough with a rolling pin, turning and folding every 2 or 3 hits until it becomes smooth and elastic. The longer you pound, the better. With practice, you will learn to recognize the change that occurs in the dough making it pliable enough to pull out to cover a table. Roll the dough into a ball, oil slightly, and let rest in a covered bowl or at least an hour (a few hours is OK if covered with waxed paper).
2
Get everything on the filling list ready before you pull the dough. Cover your table with a tablecloth. Sprinkle it with flour. Roll out the dough as much as possible with a rolling pin in the middle of the table. Working quickly, pull the dough out until it covers the table. If you haven't seen this done, watch a demo online before attempting it. When finished, sprinkle the entire dough with melted butter and then a few bread crumbs. Starting at one end, spread the apples evenly in rows, all facing the same way. Sprinkle on the raisins, currents, pecans, and some more melted butter, followed by a bit of salt. Finish with the cinnamon sugar and more butter.
3
Starting at the end where you began laying the apples, lift the tablecloth and begin to roll the strudel; continue rolling to the end. Place strudel on baking sheet (may need to bend it into a horse-shoe shape) and brush with melted butter. Bake at 350 degrees F until golden brown (40-60 minutes). Dust with powdered sugar while warm. Enjoy!
