Recipes Goldie’s Golden Noodle Kugel
My great-grandmother Goldie never measured what she cooked, so these are the approximations that my mom and Zayde wrote down when they were cooking with her. My mom usually uses less margarine (or butter) and sour cream but more noodles. Zayde usually uses more sour cream, butter and noodles. It always tastes great! 8-ounce package…

Recipes Liza’s Stress-Free Latkes
I made my standard latkes last night, mixing things up only a little: Since one friend was gluten-free, I substituted brown rice flour for regular flour (or matzo meal) and it worked perfectly.

Recipes Hanukkah Cocktail Recipe — The Liquid Latke
There are two versions of this holiday-themed, milk-based cocktail. The first is faster, and the milk stays white.
