  1. I absolutely LOVED this dish. What wonderful flavor. It's similar to Jewish noodle kugel with the sour cream and cottage cheese and eggs, but the onion and caraway seed really makes this dish shine. Do not leave out the these ingredients...they totally make the dish. I don't like celery, so I left it out and doubled the onion. I also think there weren't quite enough noodles...I had a hard time covering the dish in each layer. Next time I would go with 12 oz of noodles. And I would keep an eye on it...mine was done about 10 minutes early and the noodles were crisping up and the cheese was browning, so I went ahead and pulled it out. Definitely an all star...going in my Best of 2017 file!
