A Spaetzle version with Beer. Adapted from Perfect Pear Cafe. Ingredients:
2 eggs |
2 egg yolks |
1 teaspoon sage |
1 pinch nutmeg |
5 ounces beer (munich dunkel would be nice) |
1 teaspoon minced garlic |
salt and pepper |
2 cups flour |
olive oil |
Directions:
1. Saute garlic in oil.
2. Mix eggs, yolks, nutmeg, and beer* until blended.
3. Stir in the garlic.
4. Add flour until a thick batter-like consistency is achieved.
5. Boil water in a large pot.
6. Push spaetzle through spaetzle maker or colander into boiling water; and simmer for 1-2 minutes.
7. Strain spaetzle and spread out on a cookie sheet. Lightly oil and allow to cool.
8. When ready to serve, heat olive oil and saute spaetzle until golden brown.
9. *Beer choice- preferably a brown ale/lager that isn't too bitter. A continental lager like a Munich Dunkel would be my choice. Though a Bock, Maibock, Oktoberfest, Vienna, or Dark American Lager would work.
