spatzle
Have you ever had this? It's a German noodle/dumpling- buttery chewy and absolutely delicious!
This is a spatzel maker, but you don;t need one! A colander works fine, too. (I used to use one until I found this baby at Marshall's for $3.99~such a deal.
To make: 4eggs 4 c flour
1tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
mix together until it's elastic. I did a sink full of dishes while my friendly mixer did the work... (yes-you read right- I do my own dishes- no dishwasher in this ol house unless it's my hubby!)
Aw, thanks Miss Kitchen Aid!
Now, just put your colander or spazle maker over some boiling salted water and push the gooey dough through!
these babies are great because they tell you when they're done... they float right to the surface.
you can eat em fresh out of the pot or.... melt a bit of butter
and let them swim about in it!
top with some fresh pepper and a dash of salt...and.....
watch out if it's left unattended!

I received your package today. Thanks so much for the sazon!
You would think that I, of 3/4 GERMAN ancestry, would have had this and made this before. I've done neither. I would love to try this recipe but, although I ask for one every year, I do not have a Kitchen Aid. How long do you think it would take to mix by hand with my hand held beater? Also, do you have any suggestions as to what to serve this with? Thanks Michelle!
