Manischewitz Egg Flakes Square Farfel Egg Noodles 12oz Pack of 4 — Enriched, Quick‑Cooking Kosher Pasta

Manischewitz Egg Flakes Premium Enriched Egg Noodles are square-shaped farfel made from enriched wheat and eggs, sold in a convenient 12oz pouch and offered here as a pack of four for family-sized meals and holiday cooking. Manischewitz has long been recognized for pantry staples that blend tradition with everyday convenience. These premium enriched egg noodles—often called square farfel—deliver a tender, slightly chewy texture and a neutral, egg-forward flavor that adapts easily to soups, kugels, stuffing, and quick stovetop sides. This pack of four 12-ounce bags gives you pantry-ready portions for entertaining, weekly meal prep, or keeping a reliable kosher pasta option on hand.

What makes these egg flakes different from regular pasta?

Unlike long-cut pastas, these egg flakes are small, square pieces designed to cook quickly and absorb broths and sauces effectively. The inclusion of eggs in the dough creates a richer color and a silkier mouthfeel compared with plain semolina noodles. Because they are enriched, they also provide additional vitamins and iron commonly added during production.

• Small square shape that cooks fast and mixes evenly in soups.
• Enriched wheat formulation for added nutrients and sturdiness.
• Eggs in the dough for a fuller flavor and smoother texture.
• Kosher-certified brand suitable for traditional celebrations.

How should I cook and use Manischewitz square farfel?

Cooking is simple: boil in salted water or simmer directly in soup until tender, usually in a matter of minutes. For a toasted farfel side, sauté the flakes in butter before adding liquids for a nutty aroma and firmer bite. They pair well with broths, tomato-based sauces, or creamy casseroles and can be used as a breadcrumb alternative in some recipes.

• Boil or simmer 3–6 minutes until al dente; adjust time for desired texture.
• Toast in butter for a crisp, golden finish before adding liquids.
• Stir into soups, stuffing mixes, casseroles, or grain bowls.
• Use as a quick side—drain and toss with herbs and olive oil.

How much does a 12oz bag yield and how many servings does the pack provide?

A single 12-ounce bag typically yields about 3–4 cups cooked, depending on how long it’s simmered and how much liquid it absorbs. This pack of four supplies roughly 12–16 cups of cooked farfel total, which is enough for multiple family meals or several side-dish servings at gatherings. Portion sizes vary by recipe, but plan on about 1/2 to 1 cup cooked per person as a side.

• One 12oz bag yields approximately 3–4 cups cooked farfel.
• Pack of four yields about 12–16 cups total—ample for families or events.
• Estimate 1/2–1 cup cooked per person for side-dish portions.
• Great for batch cooking and freezing prepared entrees.

How should I store these noodles and how long do they keep?

Unopened bags should be stored in a cool, dry pantry away from strong odors and direct sunlight to maintain flavor and texture. Once opened, transfer leftovers to an airtight container or resealable bag and use within a few months for best quality. Cooked farfel keeps in the refrigerator for about 3–4 days and freezes well for longer-term meal prep.

• Store unopened in a cool, dry place up to the printed best-by date.
• Keep opened product in an airtight container to preserve freshness.
• Cooked leftovers refrigerate for 3–4 days or freeze up to 2–3 months.
• Suitable for batch cooking and make-ahead holiday dishes.
