  • Mom Stern’s Noodle Kugel

    Recipe By : From stern@tilt.FUN –hal stern, princeton university comput
    Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Pasta

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    6 eggs
    280 G sugar
    15 Ml baking powder
    15 Ml vanilla
    100 G raisins (1 small box)
    4 apples
    450 G wide egg noodles (one box)
    100 G butter (1 stick)
    cinammon (for top)

    1. Peel the apples and and slice them into small wedges.

    2. Beat the eggs until they are foamy, add the sugar gradually and beat well.

    3. Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain.

    4. Melt the butter in a .AB 9×13 20cmx30cm metal baking pan. Swirl it around
    to coat the pan, and then pour the excess butter into the egg mixture.

    5. Add baking powder and vanilla to egg mixture, mix well, and then slowly
    add drained noodles, apples and raisins. Mix thoroughly until all the noodles
    have been coated and look gooey.

    6. Pour the egg/noodle mixture into the metal pan, top with cinammon if you
    desire, and bake at 220 øC for about 45 minutes to an hour, or until the top
    looks a little brown and crispy. The kugel should feel springy to the touch
    and not be “wet”.

    7. Let cool, cut into squares, and serve.

    Author’s Notes:
    I use Muller’s egg noodles. This feeds about 12 very hungry people
    (knoshers, as we call them) or 16 normal ones. What you don’t eat right
    away you can wrap in aluminum foil and freeze for a month or two. If
    it’s too sweet for your taste, you can use peaches or other fruit instead
    of the raisins. Warning: this stuff sits very heavy in the ol’ stomach,
    so don’t try to eat more than 2 pieces in a 24-hour period. Don’t thank
    me, thank my mom.

    Difficulty : easy to moderate.
    Precision : measure the ingredients.

    Ethnic

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 cup Sugar
    2/3 cup Cocoa
    2 teaspoons Instant expresso or coffee
    1/3 cup Water
    4 Egg yolks
    10 Maraschino cherries

    Soak cherries in rum. Sift sugar; cocoa, and instant coffee together and place
    in a heavy sauce pan. Add the water and mix well. Bring to a boil and cook
    until everything is well mixed. While syrup is cooking, whip the egg yolks
    until light and fluffy. Reduce the speed of the beaters to the lowest level and
    add the hot syrup in a continuous fine stream. Continue beating until the
    mixture is thick and forms a ribbon pattern when the beater is pulled away.
    Chill well. Whip the cream with the 2 tablespoons of rum until stiff. Fold into
    the chocolate mixture. Fold in the chopped chocolate. Arrange foil lined paper
    cups in a muffin pan. Fill each cup 1/3 of the way full. Place a cherry in each
    cup then fill the rest of the way. Freeze at least 4 hrs. Before serving pipe
    whipping cream on top if desired. It will keep in the freezer for about a
    month.

  • 2 c. uncooked rice
    1 med. onion, chopped
    1 can (15 1/4 – 19 oz) red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
    or equivalent dried, cooked
    1 can (15-16 oz) black beans, “ ” “
    or equivalent dried, cooked
    1 can (15-19 oz) garbanzo beans, ” “ ”
    or equivalent dried, cooked
    1 can (14 1/2 – 16 oz) canned, stewed tomatoes, drained *
    1 can (4 oz) chopped mild chiles, drained
    10 oz. frozen green peas, thawed by placing under running water
    1 cup frozen corn, “ ” “ ” “ ”

    – Preheat oven to 375.
    – In a 5-qt dutch oven over medium high heat, “saute” onion in
    liquid of your choice (balsamic vinegar gets my vote)
    ’til tender, stirring occasionally. Add rice, cook while
    stirring until parched and opaque.
    – Add beans, tomatoes, chiles and 3 1/2 cups of water to rice
    and onion in dutch oven and bring mixture to boil.
    – Cover tightly place in oven, baking until rice is tender and
    liquid is absorbed (around 1 hour for brown rice)
    – Add peas and corn, adjust seasonings, and return to oven until heated
    through.

    Additional notes:

    if using no-salt-added tomatoes, reserve the drained liquid
    and add water to equal the 3 1/2 cups of liquid.

    I add Tabasco sauce to make it a bit spicy.
