Instructions

  1. Crumble the pretzels and place in an ovenproof dish (e.g. a tiramisu dish), pour melted butter over them and bake at 180 ° C for 10 minutes, leave to cool.
  2. Boil 1 teaspoon agar agar with approx. 50 ml water, allow to cool a little. Mix the cream cheese with powdered sugar. Then stir a small amount of the cream cheese cream into the agar agar and then mix with the entire cream. Whip the cream until stiff, fold into the cream cheese mixture.
  3. Bring 500 ml water with 1 teaspoon agar agar, some food coloring, a little lemon juice and 1 tablespoon sugar to the boil, allow to cool to less than lukewarm. Slice the strawberries and add them.
  4. Spread the cream cheese cream on the pretzel base and wait until it solidifies, then carefully pour the strawberries over it and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  5. Wherever the idea comes from that this is a salad is not entirely understandable for me, because it is definitely closer to a Philadelphia cake than a salad. It`s an American dessert recipe, but the combination of sweet, fruity and salty is simply delicious, so I wanted to include it here.
