Savory Spinach Kugel
Ingredients
  • 1 (16 ounce) package egg noodles
  • 1 (16 ounce) container sour cream
  • 6 eggs, beaten
  • 8 ounces butter, melted
  • 2 (1 ounce) envelopes dry onion soup mix
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 (10 ounce) boxes frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to a high temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take some time to prepare a baking dish by coating it with a thin layer of grease. The ideal size for this task is a 9x13-inch rectangle.
3
Now, fill a large container with water that has been lightly seasoned with salt. Place the pot over high heat and bring the water to a state of vigorous boiling.
4
Once the water has reached its boiling point, add a serving of egg noodles to it and return the mixture to a state of rolling boil. Allow the noodles to cook for approximately 5 minutes, or until they have reached a tender yet still slightly firm texture.
5
After the noodles have completed their cooking time, carefully pour them into a colander that is set in the sink. This will help to drain any excess water.
6
In a separate bowl, combine a generous amount of sour cream with some beaten eggs. Add in some melted butter and a packet of soup mix, along with a few grinds of pepper. Stir the mixture until it is smooth and well combined.
7
Next, add in the cooked noodles and some drained spinach to the bowl. Stir until everything is well combined.
8
Finally, transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and bake in the preheated oven until it is hot, golden brown, and has reached a satisfactory level of doneness. This should take around 1 hour.
9
If the kugel begins to brown too quickly, consider covering it with aluminum foil to slow down the process.
