I was wondering wether I should post this somewhere else, but this seems to have become the strudel thread... Sorry for the hijack, Glenn!
Some of you might have noticed how my little sister tried to bully me into making strudel for her tonight... Well, she succeded. But since I don't have a rolling pin here in Berlin (it is in my appartment in Nuremberg, I have so many things twice now, but I did not see any point in getting a second rolling pin), I had to buy some. That's what the package looked like:
It had four sheets in it and two sheets were bundled into one package. The instructions also called to use two sheets on top of each other. These are the sheets folded up:
And this is one sheet unfolded, as you can see, you would be able to read a newspaper through it:
And this is it just before I would roll it up:
The finished thing looked like this before it went into the oven:
And that's the strudel after it has been baked:
and my serving with some vanilla tofutti (soy ice cream - for my lactose intolerant sister):
We agreed that it was nice, but the bought variety is not nearly as good as the home made one. We actually thought that the dough was too thin for our taste!

Like you'd eat that if you were concerned about your weight. 
Darned time zones.
What's happening to cooking these days?
so I enjoy it. Although I don't watch nearly as much as I used to.
