Gubana

• 1 recipe strudel pastry
• 1 cup walnuts, chopped roughly
• 1/2 cup hazelnuts, chopped roughly
• Zest of 1 lemon
• Zest of 1 orange
• 1/4 cup candied citron
• 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate pieces, roughly chopped
• 1/4 cup currants, soaked 1 hour in 1/2 cup Verduzzo wine
• 2 eggs separated, whites beaten until stiff
• 1/4 cup sugar plus 3 tablespoons

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and grease a cookie sheet.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine walnuts, hazelnuts, lemon zest, orange zest, candied citron, chocolate pieces, currants, soaking liquid and stir to combine.
3. Add egg whites and 1/4 cup sugar and fold together.
4. Roll pastry out to a 10 by 16-inch rectangle and position the longest side parallel to the work surface edge.
5. Spoon the filling over the pastry evenly, leaving 2 inches uncovered at the north end.
6. Roll the pastry up like a jelly roll from south to north so it appears to be a thick pipe.
7. Make a circle of the pipe by attaching the two open ends like a wreath.
8. Brush with beaten eggs yolks and sprinkle with remaining sugar.
9. Place on cookie sheet and bake 50 minutes.
10. Allow to cool before cutting.
11. Serve with Verduzzo wine.
