Steps for preparing the shortcrust pastry strudel with jam
In a bowl, put the butter at room temperature. Add the flour and powdered sugar. Start working. Add the eggs, salt, and grated organic lemon zest. Continue working first with a fork, then with your hands until you have a homogeneous mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
Between two sheets of parchment paper or with a little flour, roll out the dough divided in half to form two rectangles on two sheets of parchment paper. Spread them with jam. Using the parchment paper, roll them up to form two logs.
Bake in a static oven at 350°F (180°C) for 20-25 minutes. Let it cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar and serving.
Storage
You can store it for two or three days under a glass dome.
