Ingredients

  • 500 g flour
  • 5 eggs
  • 150–200 ml water
  • Salt

Directions

1

Combine all ingredients using hands or an electrical mixer.

2

Add enough water to make a dough that is slightly sticky, but still elastic and stiff.

3

Beat long enough for bubbles to rise.

4

Boil a large pot with salted water.

5

If using only a board, sweep a spoon of dough over the kitchen board with the grater. Cut/grate small pieces of the dough with the grater into the hot water. If using a spaetzle-maker, put a spoon of dough into the maker and press through the holes into the water. The spaetzle are done when they rise and swim on the water surface.

6

Remove spaetzle from the water with a slotted spoon and put into a lightly oiled bowl.
