Noodle kugel is a traditional Jewish European dish that can be served hot or cold. It is similar to the kugel that my grandfather ate in Poland and it helped remind him of the connection to his past home, especially since he lost most of his family in the Holocaust.

Bubbie's Simple Noodle Kugel

July 28, 2014

Author: Gary Finkler

When I was little, we used to visit my Bubbie in Woodside, Queens. Every time, she would be waiting outside her apartment and arms wide for a hug. There we would go, inside where all of Bubbie’s delicious savory noodle kugels would be waiting for us. Every time we visited Bubbie there was a kugel, without fail. Now I make that kugel for my family and guests and remember my Bubbie and our visits.

Ingredients:

1 bag of egg noodles (medium)

several eggs, salt & pepper to taste

Canola Oil

Directions:

Boil noodles when done. Cool and mix eggs. Heat frying pan with canola oil. Pour noodles and cook till golden. Then flip and cook on the other side.
