Yerushalmi Kugel ( Hebrew : קוגל ירושלמי , romanized : kūgel yerūshálmi ), also known as Jerusalem kugel , is an Israeli kugel originating from the local Jewish community of Jerusalem in the 18th century. The dish is served on Shabbat and on Jewish holidays . According to local legend, the recipe for Yerushalmi (Jerusalemite) kugel was brought to Jerusalem from Lithuania by the students of the Vilna Gaon during the eighteenth century.
