Our guests just left. I used my best china and silver and my food came out PERFECT. My soup and matzo balls were the best I've ever made. My 95 year old mother in law was very happy. She is afraid of dogs so she won't come here too often and the dogs were quiet in the other room praying for some brisket.
Joanna,
Noodle Kugel is very easy. This is my favorite kugel recipe and when I make it everyone asks me to bring it next time. I get lots of requests for this - without the options.
Boil 1 lb extra wide egg noodles
rinse them and let them cool
Scramble 5 eggs
Mix in to eggs:
1/4 cup of granulated sugar
2 Cups of Sour Cream
2 Cups of Cottage Cheese
1/2 lb of melted butter
1/2 tsp of vanilla extract (Tahitian is good)
Mix noodles and egg/cheese mixture in a 9x13 Pyrex dish or other oblong baking dish
Top Kugel with
3/4 of a cup of crushed cornflake crumbs mixed with 1/2 cup of melted butter
Bake 50 - 60 minutes at 350 degrees
Cut into squares. Really good cold the next day or reheats well. Cut it when cold for easier serving.
Optional: Mix into noodles and cheese your choice
a 16 oz can of crushed pineapple or
raisens (1 cup) and some cinnamon to taste
