Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Keestu is a Ukranian noodle, usually used in savory dishes. In Grandmas recipe, she had added other things for a sweeter variation. I don't know where she got the recipe from or if she created it herself. I just know that as far back as I can remember, it was always an Easter tradition to make this dish and serve it in the Easter Basket.
