- 1⁄2 lb vermicelli, broken into very small pieces before cooking (pasta in strings thinner than spaghetti)

- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- 1⁄2 teaspoon grated fresh lemon rind

- In LARGE bowl, break 10 eggs and beat them VERY, VERY lightly; just enough to break and mix them.
- Squeezing with your hand sufficiently will do.
- Add milk to eggs.
- In another bowl, mix cinnamon to sugar.
- ALWAYS mixing lightly, add EACH remaining ingredient to the eggs, except for the macaroni.
- ***NOTE: Need to make sure all ingredients are mixed well and sugar is dissolved for the most part.

- Using your hands is probably best for mixing.
- Grease pan lightly.
- (PYREX/GLASS preferred) and dust with flour, tapping out excess.
- Bake at 350°F until JUST about firm.
- Raise to 400°F until FIRM and to lightly brown the top.
- NOTE: Overcooking will dry it out.
- Worth trying, yes, TRUE!
- HOPE you'll have a go at making it for YOUR family too!

unique and different, but also similar to a noodle kugel, jewish soul food. I did not use any of the citron or grated lemon rind, I just doubled the vanilla extract. Really good, even for breakfast.
