Potato Kugel

description Potato Kugel Overview

Potato kugel is a traditional Ashkenazi Jewish savory pudding made from a mixture of grated potatoes, eggs, onions, and schmaltz or oil. The mixture is baked in the oven until the exterior becomes crispy and golden, while the interior remains soft and dense. It is typically served as a side dish during Sabbath and holiday meals, where it can be prepared in advance to comply with cooking restrictions. The dish became a staple of Eastern European Jewish cuisine and is closely related to the potato latke.
