Parfait is whipped and frozen cream with eggs (or egg whites, or egg yolks) and sugar. A bit like ice cream, but softer, stronger in consistency and melts much slower.
I’m talking about the lack of time during the holidays again. After the unsweetened “snails”, I suggest baking a quick strudel. Instead of crackers, which are usually added to the filling, I used crumbly couscous.

Let’s enjoy a delicious warm dessert, in the preparation of which there is nothing complicated! Surprised!? It’s all about the secret autumn ingredients!
Who and when came up with the idea of stretching raw, specially prepared dough to the thickness of tissue paper, and then wrapping it in a thick layer of fruit filling? It is said that the history of this amazing strudel cake has its roots in Byzantium and even Ancient Greece. It received its current name much later, in the XVIII century, from German confectioners. They made him the king of the pies of that time, contesting the palm among his cakes with the Viennese bakers. German, Austrian, Hungarian, Czech confectionery successfully sold all kinds of strudels – with nuts, apples, cottage cheese, cherries, strawberries, poppy seeds, raisins. In those days strudels were not only sweet, but also with mushroom, potato, cabbage and even fish fillings. Currently, preference is given to strudel for tea. Strudels have conquered the hearts of confectioners by the fact that they harden for a long time (the property of the dough to exhale) and they have a large proportion of filling – you can not be afraid to get fat. In addition, strudel dough can be prepared without fats, which is very important both for people who follow a diet and for those who suffer from diathesis.
This recipe is taken from the book by Karl Schumacher, the famous Austrian chef, about Viennese cakes! Excellent dough, thin, airy, crispy, and a very interesting filling of poppy seeds! We really liked the strudel, and I hope you will like it too!
Dear cooks, I bring to your attention a recipe for a classic apple strudel with apples and cinnamon. Despite the fact that there are quite a lot of such recipes on the site, after reading a few, I came to the conclusion that there are differences in the composition of the dough and the technique of stretching it. Many people are afraid of the stretching process, I also, to be honest, did not dare for a long time, but in fact it was very simple and now I bake this wonderful biscuit roll very often. I offer my own version of strudel with several secrets that make it easier to work with the dough and make this delicacy, which is loved by many, unique.
Brownie is a traditional dessert of American cuisine, which is usually served with milk, coffee or warm ice cream and whipped cream. By its consistency, the delicacy is a cross between soaked cake and dry cookies. It has a dry crispy crust on top, and a viscous moist filling inside. There are quite a lot of brownie recipes, but this one is my favorite, the most chocolate. Cooking this delicious chocolate dessert at home is quite simple. Try it?
