NOODLE AND APPLE KUGEL



Noodle and Apple Kugel image

This comforting kugel tastes much richer than it is, and it is certainly lighter than a traditional kugel (though it is not a low-calorie dessert). I've made this with Golden Delicious apples and with tarter varieties like Pink Lady; I liked it both ways.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 apples, cored and cut in small (1/4- to 1/2-inch) dice
6 ounces flat egg noodles, preferably whole-grain
Salt to taste
1/4 cup raisins, plumped for 5 minutes in warm water and drained (optional)
4 eggs
1/4 cup raw brown sugar or dark brown sugar
1 cup drained yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons rum
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 2-quart baking dish. Begin heating a large pot of water.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the apples. Cook, stirring or tossing in the pan, until they begin to color and are slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • When the water comes to a boil, add salt to taste and the noodles. Cook al dente, a little firmer than you would want them if you were eating them right away. Drain through a colander and add to the pan with the apples (if using long flat noodles, cut them first with a scissors into shorter lengths). Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and toss together until the butter melts. Stir in the optional raisins. Set aside.
  • Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the sugar and beat together until the mixture is thick. Beat in the yogurt, vanilla, rum, nutmeg and about 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste. Add the noodles and apples and fold everything together. Scrape into the prepared baking dish. Push the pasta down into the egg and yogurt mixture (it will not be completely submerged, but try to cover as much as you can). Place in the oven and bake 40 to 45 minutes, until the kugel is set and the sides are browned. There will always be some noodles on top that brown and become quite hard. You can remove these from the baked dish if you wish. Allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

Sweet apple and noodle dish of east European origin. Kugels can be made in many flavors, both sweet and savory. Serve either warm or cold, as a side dish or a dessert. Like lasagna, kugel tastes better the day after it is made. Jonagold and Rome Beauty are two apple varieites ideal for this dish.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. Mixing different types of apples, such as Granny Smith, McIntosh, and Honeycrisp, will give your kugel a complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the apples. You want them to be tender but still retain their shape.
  • Use a good quality egg noodle. Wide egg noodles are the traditional choice for kugel, but you can also use other types of noodles, such as penne or macaroni.
  • Don't skimp on the butter. Butter adds richness and flavor to kugel.
  • Bake the kugel until it is golden brown. This will give it a crispy crust and a fluffy interior.

Conclusion:

Apple noodle kugel is a classic Jewish dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like it sweet or savory, there is an apple noodle kugel recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a delicious and comforting dish, give apple noodle kugel a try.
