German Kaese Spaetzle For 1 Or 2 Recipes

Steps:

• Sift together flour, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Beat eggs in a medium bowl. Alternately mix in milk and the flour mixture until smooth. Let stand for 30 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Press batter through a spaetzle press into the water. You may also use a potato ricer, colander, or a cheese grater. When the spaetzle has floated to the top of the water, remove it to a bowl with a slotted spoon. Mix in 1 cup of the cheese.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, and cook until golden. Stir in spaetzle and remaining cheese until well blended. Remove from heat, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine flour and salt.
• Create well in flour mixture.
• Add beaten eggs and water.
• Mix together and add water until batter is SLIGHTLY sticky.
• Using Spaetzle machine press noodles into large pot of lightly boiling salted water. (If you don't have a spaetzle machine you can drop strings of the dough into the water).
• When the noodles float to the top of the water take them out and drain on paper towels.
• Repeat the last two steps until all of your dough is used up.
• Brown your noodles in butter until they just begin to brown around the edges.
• Place your noodles in a casserole with cheeses.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes until cheeses are fully melted.
• Stir and serve.
• Enjoy!
