Kaiserschmarrn
A broken apart fluffy pancake from Austria served with Marillenröster - something between a Compost and Marmalade made from apricots

Compost or compote?
-
Haha they definitely meant compote but here's an interesting fact. Compote comes from French compote which I thought had an accent on the o but apparently doesn't. When French has an accent over a vowel it typically indicates that an s has been dropped from old French, which would have made sense because the og French word was actually composte.

As a French speaker I had never heard of this, but I looked it up and it's indeed the case specifically for circumflex accents (ê, ô, â, î) and not the others.
A neat resource (in French naturally) that I found on this:

Zwetschgenröster oder Apfelmus, du Züpfeklatscha!

I prefer Kaiserschmarrn with applesauce

Applesauce is a gift of the gods for pancakes, Kaiserschmarrn, Crepes, lots of things, really. The yanks love drowning their stuff in tree sap, but applesauce is superior, that's just a fact.

"Broken apart fluffy pancake" certainly describes Kaiser Wilhelm II in the post-WWI era. Excellent naming, Austria.
-
It's not the same dough as pancake dough though
-
it definitely is not, but that's the best way to describe it to someone that has never heard of it

True

Looks like a side of curry there 😅 but real talk, Kaiserschmarrn is delicious!

Kind of looks like Greek bougatsa

It looks awesome. I would try this without hesitation!
