Sweet Noodle Kugel

This is the style of kugel we'd get in a New York City area Jewish deli, and that my relatives would make for holidays. There seems to be endless variations of this noodle pudding now, but for me this is the authentic original version. Refrigerate leftovers.

Yield:
1 8-inch square kugel

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) package wide egg noodles

  • 2 cups small curd cottage cheese

  • 1 ½ cups sour cream

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • ½ cup raisins

  • 3 large eggs, beaten

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.

  2. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rapid boil. Cook egg noodles at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 9 minutes. Drain.

  3. Mix cottage cheese, sour cream, sugar, raisins, eggs, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Mix in cooked noodles. Pour into the prepared baking dish.

  4. Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven, until golden brown on top, about 40 minutes.

Cook's Notes:

Do not use light versions of sour cream or cottage cheese.

You can use regular or golden raisins.

To fill a 9x13-inch pan, multiply all ingredients by 1.5.
