One of my favorite Passover dishes, my Great Grandmother Helen Feldman’s sweet kugel always warms my heart (and my stomach) around springtime. It is a tradition for my Nana and I to cook together before our big seder. We spend lots of time in the kitchen laughing, listening to music and making memories while remembering our family who passed these recipes down to us!
