Spaetzle With Sage Butter

Recipe Ingredients

2		Eggs
1/2 cup	118ml	Milk
1 cup	62g / 2.2oz	All-purpose flour
1 teaspoon	5ml	Salt
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Freshly-ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Ground nutmeg
4 tablespoons	60ml	Unsalted butter
2 tablespoons	30ml	Chopped fresh sage

Recipe Instructions

Combine the eggs and milk. Combine the flour, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Using a wooden spoon add the liquid to the flour and mix to combine well. Mix the dough well and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil.

Using a spaetzle maker (a utensil that resembles a food mill) or passing the dough through a colander, position the utensil over the boiling water. Pass the spaetzle dough into the water and allow to cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the spaetzle floats to the surface. Use a spider strainer to scoop the spaetzle out of the water and place in a bowl. Melt the butter in a sauce pan, until it begins to turn brown. Add the chopped sage and pour the butter over the spaetzle and serve.

This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
