The secret to keeping your potatoes their whitest is to switch back and forth when grating the potatoes and onion in your food processor or box grater. —Ellen Ruzinsky, Yorktown Heights, New York

I followed recipe ingredients as given. Only ingredient change was adding 1 Tbsp. butter to baked kugel and putting under broiler for about 5 minutes for MORE color. I'd baked the kugel @ 350o F. by mistake!I did sample kugel and with the broiled top, I did get more color! The kugel tasted like a giant baked potato latke and was crunchy on top!

This dish didn't have much flavor, but made yummy latkes the next morning.
