With Rosh Hashanah starting at sundown next Friday, Sept.15, the High Holiday season is once again upon us. It goes without saying that family meals are a major component of this time of year.
In that vein, Chef Todd Kalkstein, director of dining services at Atrium Village senior living community in Owings Mills, has shared with Jmore his beloved mother’s Rosh Hashanah Noodle Kugel recipe.
“I gleaned the art of traditional Jewish cooking through cherished moments spent in the kitchen with my mother,” says Kalkstein, a native of East Meadow, New York. “Many of these treasured recipes have been handed down through generations, and I am thankful to be able to share these culinary gems with residents and their families at Atrium Village.
“These recipes, you see, weren’t learned in culinary school, though I graduated from the Culinary Institute of America. They are a part of my upbringing and a beautiful tapestry of Jewish culture.”
“Enjoy your delicious homemade noodle kugel as a delightful dessert or side dish!” says Chef Kalkstein. “Our residents will be enjoying Mama Kalkstein’s Noodle Kugel at the Atrium Village Rosh Hashanah dinner.”
