Kugel Passover Recipes

When it is Passover, the first thing that comes to the mind is kugel! This traditional Passover favorite is the mainstay of this festive meal and your Pesach spread is incomplete without it. When you are craving for something salty, sweet and savory, kugel is indeed the dish to go for. Meaning 'ball' or 'globe', kugel is often related to the German Gugelhupf, a ring shaped cake. Although today kugel is made from apples, broccoli, spinach, cranberry and sweet potato, the traditional kugel recipe was restricted to egg noodles and potatoes. A Passover feast without kugel as a dessert or a side dish is inconceivable. If you plan to host a Passover feast, it is worth learning how to make this timeless classic at home. Scroll further and figure out the recipes of the mouth-watering classic rendition of kugel dishes that will gather you great applause. Make this day more special with this delicious traditional Jewish treat.
