Spätzle Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
Prepare the Spätzle Batter
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, salt, and nutmeg until the mixture is smooth and thick. Let it 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 batter into the boiling water. Cook until the noodles float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Sauté the Onions
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
