Apple Strudel with Apple Caramel Sauce
A neighbor recently had some major surgery and we decided to take a dinner over to his house rather than have him here. As he is of German decent we decided on a menu of German foods. The weather cooperated in that it was cool and rainy, almost fall like, so the heavier German fare fit right in. Pan sautéed pork tenderloin with brown gravy, spaetzle and red cabbage fit the bill. I even made Julia Child’s recipe for Pumpernickel bread, a chore I won’t be repeating anytime soon. Everything turned out great but the highlight of the evening was the apple strudel with apple caramel sauce. Making the caramel from the juices left over from cooking the apples was a great choice as it had the taste of both apple and caramel.
Don’t wait until Fall to make this delicious dessert.
