Side Dishes

If you’re not familiar with Noodle Kugel, it’s also known as Noodle Pudding, and it’s a staple side dish at most Jewish holiday dinners in some version or another. There are potato kugels and vegetable kugels… this is a traditional kugel made with extra wide noodles, butter, and cinnamon. I make this in a Bundt pan and slice it to serve it. It’s extra delicious when it’s sopping up brisket gravy.

True story: As a guest at a holiday meal, I’ve been asked to bring two of these, so one can be served, and the other can be “saved for later.” I’ve had (and made) a lot of kugels in my day, but this one, hand’s down, is the best.
