1 Recipe strudel pastry
1 Cup walnuts -- chopped roughly
1/2 Cup hazelnuts -- chopped roughly
Zest of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 orange
1/4 Cup candied citron
1/4 Cup semi-sweet chocolate pieces -- roughly chopped
1/4 Cup currants, soaked 1 hour
In 1/2 Cup Verduzzo Wine
1/2 Cup Verduzzo wine
2 eggs separated
yolks beaten until stiff
1/4 Cup sugar -- plus 3 T

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a cookie sheet.

In a large mixing bowl, combine walnuts, hazelnuts, lemon zest, orange
zest, candied citron, chocolate pieces, currants, soaking liquid and stir
to combine. Add egg whites and 1/4 cup sugar and fold together. Roll pastry
out to a 10 by 16-inch rectangle and position the longest side parallel to
the work surface edge. Spoon the filling over the pastry evenly, leaving 2
inches uncovered at the north end. Roll the pastry up like a jelly roll
from south to north so it appears to be a thick pipe. Make a circle of the
pipe by attaching the two open ends like a wreath. Brush with beaten eggs
yolks and sprinkle with remaining sugar. Place on cookie sheet and bake 50
minutes. Allow to cool before cutting. Serve with Verduzzo wine.

Yield: 4 servings
