Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces egg noodles
- 6 slices thick-cut bacon
- 1 large yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the noodles are cooking, chop the bacon into small pieces and set it aside. Thinly slice the onion and finely chop the fresh parsley.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it is crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon pieces with a slotted spoon and set them aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.
Add the sliced onion to the skillet with the bacon fat. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.
Add the butter to the skillet with the caramelized onions and let it melt. Stir in the white vinegar, Dijon mustard, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly to combine.
Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss them with the onion mixture until well coated. Stir in the crispy bacon pieces.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving for a bright, fresh finish.
Serve the Hot German Noodles immediately as a side dish or as a main course on their own.
