Author: Merle Orelove

My step-daughter (age 18) had never tasted kugel until I married her dad. She loved it and wanted it for every meal. She is a vegetarian, so every Thanksgiving I make one for her in the shape of a turkey and we call it “kugelurkey”!

Ingredients:

1 lb cottage cheese

½ pint sour cream

1 stick butter

12 oz noodles

1 tsp vanilla

1 tsp cinnamon

1 cup raisins or dried cranberries

Preparation:

Cool noodles as per directions on package and drain. Mix together the eggs, ¾ of the butter, sour cream and cottage cheese. Add vanilla, cinnamon and raisins and stir in with noodles. Dot with remaining butter. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 mins-1 hour. Serve hot or cold.

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.

1 grated apple

3 eggs beaten

1 cup sugar
