Etymology

The word 'strudel' comes from the German word for 'whirlpool' or 'eddy', which reflects the swirling shape of the pastry. Its origins trace back to the 18th century in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, where it became particularly popular in Vienna. The traditional apple strudel is made using a specific dough that is stretched until it is nearly transparent, allowing for a delicate texture. Over the years, strudel has been adapted with various fillings beyond the classic apple, such as cheese, poppy seed, and cherry, making it a versatile dish. The popularity of strudel spread across Europe and beyond, evolving into different regional variations. Its cultural significance remains strong in many countries, often represented in local culinary traditions.
