Slovenian Strudel Pie: My All-American Fourth of July Winner



The proper name for this delectable dish is prekmurska gibanica.  I will be posting the recipe soon.
(Update: The recipe is now posted here.)

Imagine alternating layers of filo dough and four different fillings: farmer cheese, poppy seed, walnut and apple.  Yes, it was labor intensive.  But well worth it.

In the meantime, you can read more about how I discovered prekmurska gibanica in the Red Room essay below.  I really did enter a neighborhood Fourth of July baking contest with this Slovenian specialty!
