Spätzle Ingredients

Method

Spätzle Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Spätzle Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the flour, eggs, milk, salt, and nutmeg. Mix until the batter is smooth and slightly elastic.

  2. 2

    Boil Water

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

  3. 3

    Cook the Spätzle

    Using a Spätzle maker or a colander, press the batter into the boiling water. Cook until the Spätzle float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

  4. 4

    Sauté the Spätzle

    In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cooked Spätzle and sauté until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
