Cheese Strudel

In our family, there are always latkes for Hanukkah.

SERIOUSLY! WOULD THERE EVER BE ANY DOUBT ABOUT THAT?!

But also, we always have some dish that includes cheese, to honor Judith, who played a major part in the Maccabee victory. You can read all about it here.

Most often I make cheese-filled blintzes, because … blintzes! One of man/womankind’s all-time favorite foods. One of my favorites, anyway.

When I am feeling even more ambitious, I make potato-cheese kreplach. Boy do I LOVE those! In fact, they are on my list of top-five foods of all time.

But this year, the dairy dish will be cheese strudel because this coming Sunday (December 13th) I am giving a Zoom demo of Hanukkah foods for my local Hadassah chapter and one of the recipes I am making will be cheese strudel. My husband and I will have some of it for dessert and then I will have the leftovers to stash away for New Year’s, when my cousins come after they have quarantined so they can be with us! New Year’s Eve might seem normal this year!

Cheese strudel — for Hanukkah. For New Year’s. Whenever!

CHEESE STRUDEL

10 sheets phyllo dough

3-4 tablespoons butter

1-1/2 cups farmer cheese

4 ounces cream cheese

1/3 cup sour cream

1/2 cup sugar

1 large egg yolk

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel

3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/3-1/2 cup raisins, optional

3 tablespoons bread crumbs, approximately

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Open the package of phyllo dough and cover the sheets with a barely moist kitchen towel. Melt the butter and keep warm over low heat. Place the farmer cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, egg yolk, flour, lemon peel, vanilla extract, salt and raisins, if used, in a bowl and mix to combine the ingredients. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a work surface and brush lightly with some of the melted butter. Sprinkle with some bread crumbs (about 1/2 tablespoon). Layer a second sheet of phyllo on top, sprinkle with some bread crumbs and repeat for a third and fourth layer. Add a final fifth sheet on top. Spoon half the cheese mixture down the long side of the phyllo sheet leaving about one inch on each end. Roll the dough over the cheese and finish rolling, jellyroll style until the roll is complete. Place the roll, seam side down. On the parchment lined baking sheet. Repeat with another five sheets of phyllo and the remaining cheese mixture. Place the second roll on the baking sheet. Brush the surface of the rolls with remaining butter. Chill for about one hour. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Bake for about 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Makes 2 rolls, each serving 4-6 people

ハリウッド俳優にベジタリアンが多い理由のひとつに、肉を食べる際の戒律がやたら多いユダヤ教徒が多いからというのがある。先祖代々の教えは尊重したいけど、それだと近代的な生活は送れない。面倒くさいから肉食べるの止めちゃうかっていう感じなのだろう。でもベン・スティラーはそれだと元気が出ないので魚だけは食べてるそうだ（ユダヤ教が禁じているのでエビカニは食べてないはず）#hanukkah2020 #ハヌカ5日目 https://www.instagram.com/p/CIxyudOjeW8/?igshid=1ra8006pswbbt

One rabbi in Brooklyn claims to have over 1,000 dreidels from all over the world. Rabbi Dr. Eliyahu Safran shares his loveliest and largest dreidel collections. The largest in the world. Watch his video:

Hanukkah goes beyond latkes and cheering the men who were victorious and re-dedicated the ancient Temple. It is also a time to honor the woman who helped make it happen. Judith, who slew Holofernes, leader of the enemy forces. Read about it in my post, linked in the profile and on my blog. For her we eat cheese! And it doesn’t get better than this Cheese Strudel. Recipe also linked in the profile and on my blog. #chanuka2020 #hanukkah2020 #hanukkah #chanukah #judith #judithandholofernes #cheese strudel #cheesedessert https://www.instagram.com/p/CIoBAHwLbvT/?igshid=1iiltl6o3dgii

CHANUKAH IN JERUSALEM🕎

Although Chanukah (Hanukkah) has already happened in 2020 (VERY recently) - I still would like to have a moment to recognize & honor the good faith of the Jewish families who are still going strong in 2020! This video was from a good amount of years ago, so please pardon the lack of COVID-relevance in this... it’s nice to see people have faith to lift our spirits up.

I have always had a deep appreciation & respect for Jewish Faith since I was a child. When my Grandmother (on my father’s side) discovered that the European side of the family had once been Jewish (prior to American citizenship) - it enriched my growing understanding of the possibilities of one’s Family Tree & Heritage. My background is a complex variety pack of multiple faiths & opposing walks-of-life - So, I never had the option to be a racist, or have a narrow-minded outlook on diversity (Thank Goodness).

In hopes to spread good cheer in 2020 (we deserve it), I think it would be very important to honor Jewish Faith by sharing the Good Vibes of said Jewish Faith & People.

“CHAG URIM SAMEACH” & HAPPY CHANUKAH!!! Light Will ALWAYS SHINE Out The Darkness. Let The Light SHINE!
