I have encountered the most saddest Apple strudel.

The pastry was so thick and claggy… I could only eat the filling.

Oh, it was not good. I have made a cheat one with frozen pastry that was better, even days later.

mmm, it should be light and fluffy

at home if it's a problem brush the pastry with beaten egg before making the pie and that will help stop it going soggy

I know! I already knew something was wrong when I spent a minute trying to sever the end bit of pastry. I should have taken a photo.
