noodle kugel

Baked pasta pudding

Noodle kugel is a baked Jewish casserole of egg noodles bound with eggs and often sweetened with sugar, cinnamon, and raisins.

It ranges from savory versions with onions and schmaltz to dessert-like preparations with cottage cheese or sour cream.

A staple of Ashkenazi cuisine, it appears at Shabbat dinners, holidays, and family gatherings: Grandma's noodle kugel was the highlight of every Passover.
