KITCHEN PRACTICE 2 — Breadcrumbs vs. No Breadcrumbs
==================================================
Chapter: Hungarian Cookery 10 — Capstone: A Real Hungarian Meal

TASK
----
Bake one strudel with the breadcrumb layer and one without, using
the same filling and baking time for both, and compare how soggy or
crisp the dough is once baked.

WHAT TO DO
----------
1. Stretch two equal portions of rétes dough as in Chapter 8.
2. For Strudel A, sprinkle a light, even layer of breadcrumbs over
   the dough before adding the apple filling, as the chapter
   describes.
3. For Strudel B, skip the breadcrumb layer entirely and add the
   filling directly onto the plain dough.
4. Roll both up using the cloth, brush both with melted butter, and
   bake both for the same length of time.
5. Cut into both once cooled slightly, and compare the texture of the
   dough closest to the filling.

WHAT TO EXPECT
--------------
- Strudel A's dough should stay noticeably crisper near the filling,
  with the breadcrumbs visibly having absorbed excess moisture.
- Strudel B's dough is likely to look and feel soggier or slightly
  gummy in the layers closest to the filling.
- Both should still taste good overall, but the texture difference
  should be genuinely noticeable, especially in the layers directly
  touching the apple.

WHY THIS WORKS AS AN ANSWER
----------------------------
This exercise demonstrates directly why the breadcrumb layer is a
real, practical technique rather than a decorative step — a small,
simple addition that meaningfully protects this course's own
paper-thin dough from the filling's own moisture during baking.
