Strudel Preparation

1

Make the Dough

In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add warm water, olive oil, and vinegar. Knead until smooth, cover, and let rest for 30 minutes.

2

Prepare the Filling

In a separate bowl, combine sliced apples and pears with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Set aside.

3

On a floured surface, roll out the dough as thinly as possible into a large rectangle.

4

Assemble the Strudel

Spread the melted butter over the dough, then layer the fruit mixture evenly. Roll the dough tightly and tuck in the ends.

5

Bake the Strudel

Place 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.

Gelato Preparation

6

Make the Gelato Base

In a saucepan, heat the milk, cream, sugar, and vanilla bean over medium heat until warm. In a bowl, whisk egg yolks. Gradually add the warm milk mixture to the yolks, whisking constantly.

7

Cook the Mixture

Return the mixture to the saucepan, cook on low heat, stirring until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not boil.

8

Chill and Churn

Remove from heat, strain into a bowl, and chill in the refrigerator. Once chilled, churn in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
