Kaese Spaetzle Cheese Spaetzle 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:

• Fill a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Meanwhile, heat up a nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and bacon. Cook until the onion is slightly golden.
• For the pasta, mix together eggs, flour, milk and nutmeg. The dough will be quite runny.
• Put the pasta dough onto a wooden board, now scrape with a knife little dumplings about the size of a couple of peas and let each dumpling fall into the boiling water. You can also use what is called a Spätzle machine which is like a giant garlic press or push it through a colander.
• Once the dumplings float on the water, take them out as they are done.
• Add the Spätzle dumplings and the cheese to the frying pan and fry for a couple of minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle some parsley on top.

Steps:

• Prepare spaetzel: Combine the dry ingredients (add a bit of nutmeg to taste if doing it for German Cooking, omit if for Hungarian)
• Add the milk and egg and mix together into a batter of sorts.
• Meanwhile, have a wide pan of water with salt boiling.
• Take the batter and put it into a spaetzle maker, or I used a French fry basket, and rubbed it with the bottom of a spatula to break it up.
• When the Spaetzle float, remove with a slotted spoon and put them into a colander.
• Fry onion in a little oil until very brown and crispy.Set aside.
• In heavy (preferably non-stick) skillet, heat spaetzle in a little butter.
• Grate cheese and toss into spaetzle.
• When cheese melts, transfer to large bowl and sprinkle with onion.
• Serve hot.

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!
