Learning my dear Aunt Paule’s famous Kugel dish was not only an informative cooking lesson (tip of the day, always use FULL FAT ingredients when making this dish) but also a delightful way to spend the afternoon. We laughed, shared stories and ate a delicious but very fattening dish together (with no shame ).

Cooking can be fun! Especially when you are learning from the people you love.
