Original Viennese Applestrudel (Strudel de manzanas)

Many days ago I have the recipe and the photos ready but it was enough that I sit on the computer and began to stiffen and cough. I have a terrible cold. But I found that  spent a lot of time. So here's the recipe: Apple strudel, I love everything with apples and I've made applestrudel  several recipes but I love this. The dough is so good that it was almost so much I rolled  (a very thin dough), but the second time I was more careful. I hope to make other strudel  with cherries soon . I hope you like it as we all  loved here. Note: I have to say I made this strudel  one day and I could not take pictures  !! they ate it at night. Anyway, the next day I went back to do what you see and I was able to take pictures when it was still warm! A big hug to all of you! Adapted from  Little Viena Ingredients strudel dough 1  1/2  tablespoon  neutral tasting vegetable oil 1 teaspoon vinegar  1/8 teaspoon table salt 1 cup more 2 tablespoons bread flour or all purpose flour flour for dustin
