Nana's Noodle Kugel

 


Once upon a time I had my mom's pancake recipe up on this blog for like SIX WHOLE YEARS with a typo in it. And the Chief Travel Correspondent tried the recipe multiple times and couldn't figure out why they didn't come out delectable. And the reason was: typo. And so now I have to tell anyone who reads this blog because it's really embarrassing. And what better to do with embarrassing stories than to announce them on the internets?

But did I let that stop me from posting more recipes? No. I did not. Because one of these days someone might be thankful that my grandmother's noodle kugel recipe resides on the internets. 

I've just basically decided that once I post a recipe, I will use this blog when I cook instead of my trusty hand written recipe book. That way if after I have proofread four hundred twenty seven times, at least if there's a typo I will find it before six years are up. And then the Chief Travel Correspondent will still have easy access to her great grandmother's recipes. 

Besides this one is pretty simple. I mean not that anyone really eats this many carbs anymore. Maybe for special occasions,
