How to Make Kugel

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cook 1 pound egg noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and set aside.
  3. Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter in a large bowl.
  4. Add the cooked noodles to the melted butter and toss to coat.
  5. Add 4 large eggs, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg to the noodles. Mix well.
  6. Stir in 1 cup sour cream and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. Pour the noodle mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  8. (Optional) Prepare a crumb topping by combining 1/4 cup bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Sprinkle evenly over the noodle mixture.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. Check for doneness at the 40-minute mark. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
