Noodle Kugel

Make yourself some cheesy and sour creamy egg noodles with this Noodle Kugel recipe!

By Norann Oleson

Noodle Kugel

The best thing about having Jewish neighbors is that I get to try all kinds of delicious food. Noodle Kugel is one of my favorites. It’s a simple dish, but it’s so comforting and filling. When I went to my neighbor’s housewarming, Noodle Kugel was one of the first things she told me to try. I remember thinking the dish looked a little plain, but I was so wrong.

It was love at first bite! The egg noodles were cooked perfectly, and the cottage cheese and sour cream gave it a richness I didn’t expect. I went back for seconds and then thirds! My neighbor knew I love cooking, so she didn’t hesitate to give me the recipe. I’ve been making Noodle Kugel ever since, serving it with a simple side salad or some roasted vegetables.

My interest in this dish inspired me to read more about its history. I always like to explore how I can make a dish my own, learning how it came to be in the first place. I learned that this dish is actually Ashkenazi Jewish in origin. It’s typically served as a side dish, but I think it also makes a great main course. Noodle Kugel can be made with different kinds of noodles, but egg noodles are the most traditional, and they’re also my personal favorite.

I can never get enough of the hints of sweetness that complement the pudding’s richness, and the golden raisins add a lovely texture to the dish. Whenever I feel like my family will need a little pick-me-up, I make Noodle Kugel — enough to have more refrigerated for later in the week! This dish just never gets old.
