Very good however, NOT your Boby's, (grandma's) Potato Kugel. You still need some raw onion besides the carmelized onion to give it more texture / depth of flavor. I also add a very slight amount of pureed garlic, (both carmelized with the carmelized onions &amp; raw with the raw onions) to the mix because it gives it that extra Tom, (taste)! See...I'll even teach you yiddish to go with the great flavor that should &amp; could come from heightening this dish up to it's true potential. While Michael Symon might be an iron chef...he most certainly isn't thinking or tasting with a yiddishe kupf, (jewish brain)...but what do you expect from such a nice boy? Everything kosher when he isn't?? Ess mine kinderlach, ess gezunteheit! (Eat my children, eat in good health!) <br />L'Chaim!! (To Life!!) <br />A Happy &amp; Kosher Pesach to All ! <br />
