Love this recipe! Simple, but delicious! I learned to make it in school originally, but have tweaked the recipe to add more flavor and make it more authentic.
Ingredients:
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup milk (or water)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pinch white pepper
1 pinch nutmeg
water, for boiling
2 tablespoons butter
Directions:
1. Mix eggs, flour, and milk. Add seasonings to taste. (Batter will be pretty thick.).
2. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
3. Using a spaetzle maker or colander (or anything that has holes in it), push batter through the holes into boiling water.
4. Spaetzle is ready when it floats. Remove with a slotted spoon to drain the water out.
5. Add butter to a saucepan and melt over medium-high heat.
6. Add spaetzle and saute. (Add onions and garlic for extra flavor.).
7. Serve and enjoy!
