Simple Noodle Kugel recipe

After an intense internal debate about how a noodle kugel should be—naked or cereal-topped? wide noodles or extra-wide noodles? souffléed or custardy? sweet or savory?!—this is where we landed. Our kugel is a touch sweet and a touch eggy, landing somewhere between airy and pudding-like. Don’t tell your guests, but we like the corner pieces—where the noodles get crispy from the heat of the pan—best. Save those for yourself.
