Passover Kugel

Here’s another Passover dish called Kugel. According to Wikipedia, kugel was traditionally a savory pudding made from egg noodles or potatoes. At some point, different regional tastes created sweet kugel with the addition of sugar and cinnamon. This particular one calls for fruits and nuts. The name comes from the early shape which was a dome or rounded shape, while today’s kugel can be any shape you have. Farfel – one of the ingredients listed here – is a small pellet or flake shaped pasta made from egg noodle dough.  In your store it may be called “egg barley.”

The instructions are sketchy – from what I can gather looking at other recipes, you combine everything, mixing well, pour into a pan and bake.
