Strudel in the Odesa style
Description
The pastry is prepared simply and quickly. Strudel is served with a scoop of ice cream, a cup of unsweetened coffee, or tea for dessert or as an afternoon snack. This delicacy is made from stretched dough, and you can roll it out on a thin towel and roll it up there into a log so that the dough does not tear.
