Strudel is a layered pastry with origins in Central and Eastern European cuisine, particularly Austria and Germany. Its thin, flaky dough is traditionally filled with sweet or savory ingredients, such as apples, cherries, cheese, or spinach. Apple strudel, a popular variety, typically features spiced apples, raisins, sugar, and breadcrumbs, enveloped in a buttery crust. While strudel can be a source of dietary fiber and nutrients from fruit fillings, its high sugar content and buttery layers make it a calorie-dense treat. Savory options, like spinach and cheese strudel, often provide protein and vitamins but can be high in saturated fat and sodium. Despite its indulgent aspects, strudel remains a beloved pastry celebrated for its delicate texture and rich flavors, often enjoyed as a dessert or comforting meal accompaniment. Moderation is key to balancing its taste with health considerations.
