The recipe is for Apple Strudel. It is my favorite dessert and I would love to make it in the USA. Thank you, Vicki</p> <p><em>EDIT: Hi Vicki, I'd recommend <a href="http://babelfish.altavista.com/" rel="nofollow">Babelfish</a> for your request. No perfect translations, but usually enough to understand recipes in foreign languages. Btw, the book features 5 different recipes for Apple Strudel and the recipe number you mentioned is a recipe for "Zwetschgenbavesen" (at least in my old copy of the book). On the same note, we've been eyeing with an Apple Strudel recipe from our dear friend Dagmar from Vienna for quite some time now, I think I'll post it during apple season ;) </em></p> Dear all, is it possible to send me the english translation of recipe number 1031 in the “Bayerisches Kochbuch” (Bavarian Cookbook) from Maria Hofmann & Helmut Lydtin.

Hahahahahaha! Even if I had a camera, I’m not sure I can step back far enough to get a picture of all of them. And I suppose you expect me to collect all the cookbooks that are in all of the rooms?? There are three shelves of cookbooks in the kitchen. There are a few more cookbooks on the bookshelf beside the computer. There are several more cooking magazines and a few cookbooks beside the bed. And I’m pretty sure there are a couple on the bookshelves in the living room as well. And of course, the public library has a number of cookbooks that I borrow for extended periods, return and then borrow again. The library books I generally store on the telephone table. edit 15 May: When I read delicious:days - on cookbooks, I was reminded that we too have cookbooks in the bathroom. And now I’m beginning to wonder if we don’t have cookbooks just about everywhere in the house. I just remembered that there is even a Joy of Cooking paperback in with the camping gear in the basement. [...] [...] First of all… post a picture of my cookbooks??!! Hahahahahaha!

Send hugs to C&D :) KitchenQueen Tai, Elizabeth, Sylvie, I very much enjoyed reading your cookbooks posts! Seems like we really do share the same passion for "sophisticated literature"... Elizabeth, great that I'm not the only one leaving cookbooks wherever I go! Even though they're among my favourite cookbooks, for the same reasons you mentioned, I'm still working my way through them at a slow pace. Most of the recipes I adapt quite a bit, the most recent one was lamb with a red-wine reduction sauce from <em>The New Cook</em>, which turned out great. Hi Mav,
