Instructions

Step 1

For the strudel: Heat 2 tbsp. butter in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add semolina and cook, stirring often, until light golden brown, 3–4 minutes. Stir in 1 1⁄2 cups water, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, covered, until soft and porridgelike, 5–6 minutes. Let cool.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a large baking sheet with 1 tbsp. butter; set aside. Lay 1 sheet of phyllo on a kitchen towel; brush evenly with 1 tbsp. butter; sprinkle with 2 tbsp. bread crumbs; top with a sheet of phyllo. Brush with 1 tbsp. butter; sprinkle with 2 tbsp. bread crumbs. Repeat one more time. Strew grapes over phyllo; drop semolina in dollops over top, followed by egg whites. Spread out with a rubber spatula, then sprinkle with sugars and cinnamon; drizzle with honey. Using towel to help you, roll strudel like a burrito to form a 12"-long cylinder. Transfer to prepared baking sheet; brush with sour cream. Bake until light golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let cool slightly.

Step 3

For the sauce: Whisk together sugar, flour, and yolks in a heatproof bowl until pale yellow. Whisk in milk, wine, zest, and sugar. Place bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce resembles thin pudding, about 20 minutes. Strain sauce through a fine-mesh sieve; let cool over an ice bath. Cut strudel crosswise into 8 slices and serve with sauce.
