Spaetzle (not sure where this recipe is from, passed through the family)
3 Whole eggs beaten senseless
3 cups sifted flour
1 cup milk of your choice
3 Tbs. EVOO (they use butter)
1/4 tsp. Nutmeg (optional)
Boil water in big pot. Mix ingredients together. Put through Spaetzle maker (you could push through a metal colander with a spoon, or something of that sort. Possible, roll out on well-floured surface and cut into strips. (haven't tried this as I have a spaetzle maker, but they are damn good and worth the effort!). Drop the "noodles" or put through spaetzle maker to drop into boiling water. The noodles are done when they float to the surface. It only takes about 45 seconds to a minute. With slotted spoon or strainer, pull out of water, and put in bowl. Repeat process until all the noodles are cooked.
I like to just serve them with a little olive oil and some dried spices, sometimes some sauteed mushrooms. Would also be awesome in some homemade soup (especially for those omnivores who like turkey or chicken soup!)
