Apple Strudel - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 c. flour
    1 tsp. salt
    1/4 c. sugar
    1/2 c. shortening
    2 eggs
    2/3 c. water
    3 or 4 apples per roll (Rome Beauty, Jonathan or Golden Delicious are good)
    cinnamon-sugar (1 1/2 to 2 tsp. cinnamon to 1 c. sugar)
    bread crumbs
    melted butter or oleo
    raisins
    nuts (optional)
Preparation
    Sift flour, salt and sugar.
    Work in shortening until it looks like cornmeal.
    Add eggs, well beaten, with water and blend well. Let dough set for about 10 minutes.
    Shape dough into balls and knead until bubbles form in dough.
    Place on small plates and cover.
    Let stand about 2 hours.
    (I make three rolls from this recipe.
    You might try half the recipe the first time and make two rolls to get the feel of pulling the dough.)
