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

Directions

Step 1

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.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and toss them with the onion mixture until well coated. Stir in the crispy bacon pieces.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving for a bright, fresh finish.

Step 8

Serve the Hot German Noodles immediately as a side dish or as a main course on their own.
