Potato kugel is one of the classic Shabbat dishes. And it seems everyone (and their Bubbe) has a home recipe for it. So... here’s mine! It’s simple, delicious and can be made in advance. This is one of the dishes that I always have made up in my freezer. You never know when you’ll need to pull out a kugel for guests. Potato kugel can withstand very long cooking times in the oven or on a warmer.I tend to stock my freezer up with Potato Kugels, especially before a yom tov. One of the greatest things I discovered is what I call "golden kugel." You make this recipe, but use yukon gold potatoes instead of russet potatoes. The kugel will come out a more yellowish shade and it has an awesome flavor. My family loves golden kugel and now often requests it specifically!

- Run the food processor until the potatoes and onions are the desired texture, anywhere from small bits to potato mush. Immediately, dump the potato onion mixture into the eggs.
- Combine by hand until the mixture is uniform in color. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
- Bake at 350 for 90 minutes ahead of time, then refrigerate (or freeze*). Reheat for 30 minutes before serving (or an hour if frozen). If you are not making in advance, then bake for 2 straight hours before serving. For overnight kugel, bake only one hour, then reduce heat to 200 overnight.
*HACK- you can have an overnight-style look and texture by baking for 2 hours, freezing, then warming again for an hour and a half.
