Filling

Vanilla Flan

Parsnip Ice Cream

Method

Strudel Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. In a separate bowl, mix water, egg, and olive oil. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the flour, mixing until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, then wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, combine sliced pears, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and chopped toasted almonds. Mix well and set aside.

Vanilla Flan Preparation

  1. 3

    Make Caramel

    In a saucepan, melt sugar over medium heat until it turns golden brown. Quickly pour into a flan mold or individual ramekins to cover the bottom and let it harden.

  2. 4

    Prepare Flan Mixture

    In a blender, combine sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, eggs, and the seeds scraped from the vanilla bean. Blend until smooth, then pour over the caramel in the mold.

  3. 5

    Bake the Flan

    Place the flan mold in a larger baking dish filled with hot water (water bath). Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-60 minutes or until set. Let cool and refrigerate before serving.

Parsnip Ice Cream Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook the Parsnips

    Boil parsnips in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and purée them with cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  2. 7

    Chill and Churn

    Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, then churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Freeze until firm.

Strudel Assembly and Baking

  1. 8

    Assemble the Strudel

    Roll out the rested dough on a floured surface until very thin. Spread the pear filling evenly over the dough, then roll it up tightly, tucking in the edges.

  2. 9

    Bake the Strudel

    Place the rolled strudel on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with melted butter and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
