Every year I’m always invited to a very close friends Hanukkah party, so I wanted to make an authentic Jewish dish for everyone to enjoy. After much thought, I decided to make homemade Noodle Kugel, a sweet and scrumptious side dish. Since I'm not much of a baker this was a great opportunity for me to start by making something simple and delicious. Most of the ingredients are likely to be found in your pantry but can easily be found at any supermarket. In less than an hour, my kugel was complete and looked just like the recipe that I followed! Not to mention it was a huge hit at the party. You can get the recipe I used for Homemade Noodle Kugel here. I used Dave Lieberman’s recipe from Food Network .
