Making the Dough

Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and crack the eggs into it. Gradually pour in the milk while whisking the mixture until smooth and thick. Let the dough rest for about 30 minutes.

Cook the Spätzle
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Using a Spätzle maker or a colander, press the dough into the boiling water. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the Spätzle float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Combine and Serve
In a large baking dish, layer half of the cooked Spätzle, then sprinkle half of the Emmental and Parmesan cheese over them. Add the sautéed onions, then layer the remaining Spätzle and top with the remaining cheese. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley and black pepper to taste.
