Sam's First Beigli

No hungarian Christmas is complete without a little bit of beigli magic! And this year is no exception. To up the anté, I used a filling that would make most English people make a double take. Yes, the traditional eastern European filling of syrupy ground poppy seed deliciousness

And yet actually, against all odds, it seemed to go down really well! Sam actually looked like he enjoyed it and asked for more slices over the following days.

Sam's comments:
The filling was a bit sweet but I love the taste of poppy seeds. I liked the pastry too, and there was a nice little crunchiness on the top. It was delicious and I can't wait to have some more! 9/10
