About yeast cake

I found this recipe, nearly word for word, in a jewish cookbook. This is called a strudel and it is credited with an Askenazi heritage. Unfortunately there is no picture in the book so that I can see how the finished project will look to confirm. But the proportions were exact, the instructions were the same so it should be the same thing.
I haven't seen anything in another cookbook to confirm it's origins.

Sheri, Do you have a copy of the VHS tape I made in Hannover?

I've been looking for it forever. I have no idea whatever happened to it. Will keep my eyes peeled while sorting through the stuff at home. It could have found its way into the wrong sleeve somewhere. But I had thought mom mailed it... but I don't know where she would have mailed it first.
