Lovely aperitif on the balcony with german sparkling wine/Riesling Brut Nature, as we have summer-like 26 C or 79 F. The estate Bamberger from the Nahe region is one of the best sparkling wine producer in Germany.

In the German language we call that sweet or savory SNAIL.

In English rather PINWHEEL??!

Pinwheel for sure, here snail would probably be for a sweet prep.

Gave this a go today, albeit with a mixture of carrot, beetroot, asparagus, plus a little fennel and onion, along with the cheese and herbs.

Turned out good.
