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

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.
