In this satisfying first course, the sweet-savory filling is wrapped up in a delicious homemade strudel dough. Keep in mind that the dough needs to chill overnight, so start this recipe one day ahead. Serve slices of the strudel alongside the watercress salad .

What to drink:

With the strudel and salad, pour a slightly acidic white with a touch of sweetness. Try the Domaine Pichot 2007 "Domaine Le Peu de la Moriette" Vouvray ($16), a Chenin Blanc from France’s Loire Valley.
