How to make sweet noodle kugel
When it comes to traditional Jewish recipes, the sweet noodle kugel is a classic.
Even though this version is sweet, it’s a side dish and not a dessert. It can be served warm or cold, and many add different toppings or fresh whipped cream.
This noodle casserole is a staple in Ashkenazi (Eastern European) homes and is served during on Friday nights (during Shabbat or the Sabbath) and the holidays. Since the Jewish New Year or Rosh Hashanah is right around the corner, I’m sharing this easy sweet noodle kugel recipe that anybody can make.
