I found the onions took away from the kugel. It's a much crisper and simple taste without the onions and paprika.

This noodle kugel is fantastic. I didn't find it bland at all. Maybe not enough salt?

This was a good noodle dish, served as a side at luncheon by Bergy, I liked it but found it just a little bland. An interesting way to serve noodles, thanks for posting.
