Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (8 ounce) package broad egg noodles
2 tablespoons butter
3 eggs, separated
1 cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 apples - peeled, cored and chopped
¼ cup raisins
½ cup chopped almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in the egg noodles, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the noodles have cooked through, but are still firm to the bite, about 5 minutes. Drain well. Place cooked noodles into a mixing bowl.
  • With an electric mixer, beat egg whites in a bowl until they form stiff peaks; set egg whites aside. Whisk the egg yolks together in a bowl until smooth, and mix in the sugar until well combined. Pour egg yolk mixture over the noodles, and mix in the cinnamon, apples, raisins, and almonds. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites, trying to keep as much volume as possible. Pour the kugel into the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the kugel is browned and the center is set, about 30 minutes.

Maybe I should wait to put this recipe in, but the hell with it. It is part of my history and I will share it. My Dad died in 2000 of cancer and my Mother wouldn't tell us he was at the end. But later she told me that this was the only thing he could swallow, he hurt so bad. Maybe some of you will make it for your loved ones when their time comes.

Categories     Fruit     Pasta     Brunch     Dessert     Side     Bake     Passover     Raisin     Apple     Spring     Kosher     Noodle     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 lb. wide egg noodles
1 lb. creamed or whipped cottage cheese
1 cup sour cream
1/4 lb. unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup golden raisins
2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced thin
pinch of salt
pinch of cinnamon
1 tsp. vanilla extract
butter for greasing baking pan
sour cream and fresh berries as an accompaniment, if desired

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Boil the noodles until al dente, and drain. In a large mixing bowl, combine drained noodles and remaining ingredients (through and including vanilla extract) and toss well. Transfer the mixture to a buttered 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking dish, and bake 40 minutes, uncovered. Cover with foil and bake an additional 20 minutes, or until cooked through. Remove from oven and let cool before cutting into squares. Serve warm or at room temperature with sour cream and/or fresh berries on the side, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh and high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the kugel will be. Use fresh eggs, milk, and butter. Choose high-quality noodles, such as egg noodles or pasta.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, so that they still have a little bite to them. Overcooked noodles will make the kugel mushy.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins: You can add a variety of mix-ins to your kugel, such as raisins, nuts, chocolate chips, or spices. Get creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Bake the kugel until it is golden brown: The kugel should be baked until it is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the kugel cool slightly before serving: The kugel will be easier to slice and serve if you let it cool slightly before cutting it.

Conclusion:

Rich noodle pudding kugel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its rich, creamy texture and sweet flavor, kugel is a surefire hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special dish to serve, give rich noodle pudding kugel a try.
