The Best Kugel Recipes

K is for Kugels. Kugels, kugels, kugels.

And we would not be a kosher site worth our weight in kosher salt if we didn’t try to bring you the absolute most comprehensive listing of kosher kugel recipes known to man, woman and child.

Broccoli Kugel

It all started a few months ago when I did a JoyofKosher.com search for kugels and wasn’t happy with the number of results. T (Tamar), H (Hadassah) and I looked at each other and were like “we must do our part to bring the beauty and range of kosher kugels the public.” Quite a noble undertaking if you ask me.

Roasted Garlic Kugel

Thus began our mission, helped along by you, our wonderful JoK-ers, who gleefully entered our kugel competition and helped build up our kosher kugel database to 62 recipes and growing. How very cool.

Spinach Noodle Kugel

I also felt it my duty to add some of the traditional kugel recipes to round out our repertoire. So I called my step-mother-in-law – the family appointed and anointed kugel queen – for some of her famous recipes.  Together she and I bring you some of the time-honored favorites from our family:

Broccoli Kugel
Spinach Mushroom Kugel
Spinach Noodle Kugel
Sweet Noodle Kugel
Butternut Squash Kugel
Salt and Pepper Noodle Kugel
Salt and Pepper Kugel with Roasted Garlic
Potato Kugel
Cran Apple Crunch Kugel

Cran-Apple Crunch Kugel

But don’t you worry because T’s also got you covered with a bunch of healthy exotic nouveau fusion style “kugels” like Bite Size Zucchini Kugel, Spaghetti Squasheroles with Curry and Soba Noodle Kugel.

Thank you all for taking the kugel call as seriously as you did. Did you check out our two finalists’ recipes? The contest closed this morning, and I am so thrilled to announce that Bitzenkif’s Layered Mushroom Kugel is the winner after a final tally of votes!! Bitzenkif wins a $500 shopping spree at the Kosher.com Butcher Shop and both finalists will receive a 1-year subscription to the Joy of Kosher with Jamie Geller magazine.

We have another cooking contest coming up! Chicken Recipe Contest.

    Hi Jamie! Some of the kugel links are not linking to kugels but link to pages that say the page has not been found. Would love to try some of the kugels, but I’m unable to access all the recipes. The roasted garlic noodle kugel sounds amazing and the squash kugel looks heavenly! Thanks!

  2. Zahava – we fixed the links – thanks for pointing out the error!

    I’d like the site better if you didn’t have to click so many times to get to what you’re looking for. “Click here to get recipe(s),” means click here, & then click again in the page that the 1st click takes you too. Very annoying…

    Thank you for creating such a kugel site with such varieties. I am a ‘kugel’ crazy — almost all my holiday meals have to have a kugel on the menu…..can’t wait to try some of your kugels. Your Joy of Kosher site is amazing and proud of the fact that you have and continue to be so involved with this venue which is long over due. I look forward to receiving your NEXT Joy of Kosher magazine as well….i.e. before Rosh Hashonah, do you think? Take care and be well, Elaine

  5. I also would love to try the roasted garlic kugel, but cannot get the recipe, having similar problems getting other recipes as the site needs tweaking, also if you posted answers to people’s questions. Wishing you 17 HAZARD AVENUE ENFIELD CTcontinued success with the magazine and I am looking forward to my next copy, where no clicks are necessary.

Even my post is a mystery as an unidentified address appeared out of no where.

    Hi,

    First off, Jamie your doing an amazing job! I’m always looking for yummy, easy recipes. I was wondering if you would take on the challenge of creating some meals catered for my darling husband who does not eat vegetables. Yes, even sauté onions. He will eat something that is very blended like squash soup, or sweet potato soup. And potato kugel with a very well mushed onion. He does eat fruit though, and lettuce. So my salads don’t have vegetables, only lettuce and fruits. And the only side I can really make is potatoes. :( he doesn’t like rice, coos coos and yes vegetables. And doesn’t like chicken on the bone. Only chicken breasts, and meat. So I challenge you my dear to help me feed my husband healthy, good food without making it seem healthy. And I also ordered your magazine. But I only received it well after they were out in stores. And I hope I can receive the next issue before rosh hashana.
