A German style noodle or dumpling- great in Turkey soup, or tossed in butter and breadcrumbs.
Ingredients:
2 large eggs
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter (optional)
1/4 cup breadcrumbs (optional)
Directions:
1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour and salt.
2. Whisk together milk and eggs, then combine with flour & salt until you have a sticky, thick batter. If the mixture is still to dry, you can add up to 1/4 c extra milk.
3. Extrude the batter through a spaetzle maker into boiling salted water. Cook for about 5 minutes or until all the spaetzle floats.
4. Drain and serve tossed in bread crumbs (optional).
5. For breadcrumbs- melt butter in a small skillet or fry pan and add bread crums, stir occasionally until crumbs are browned and smell toasty.
6. Soup version- extrude spaetzle directly into boiling soup.
