Preparation

How to prepare Radicchio Strudel

To prepare the radicchio strudel, first wash the radicchio and slice it very coarsely 1. Heat a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil in a pan 2, add the radicchio 3 and salt.

Cover with the lid 4 and cook over moderate heat for about 10 minutes, making sure to check from time to time that the radicchio does not burn and if necessary, add a little water. Transfer to a container and let cool. Cut the cheese into cubes 5. Roll out the puff pastry on a baking sheet with parchment paper. Sprinkle breadcrumbs along the central part 6: the breadcrumbs will absorb the excess moisture from the radicchio, allowing the puff pastry to remain less soggy, thus crispier and flakier.

Spread the now cold radicchio over the breadcrumbs 7. Add the diced Edam 8. In a small bowl, beat the egg yolk with the milk 9.

Cut fringes on one long side of the puff pastry. Brush the mixture over the puff pastry 10, fold one edge towards the filled center 11. Overlap the fringes to create a decorative pattern 12.

Finally, brush the entire surface of the strudel with the egg and milk mixture 13 and sprinkle with poppy seeds 14. Bake in a preheated static oven at 392°F for about 30 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown. The radicchio strudel is ready to be served 15.
