Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and salt. Add in the flour and stir until well combined. If it is too runny, then add a little more flour. If it is too thick, then add a little more milk.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rapid boil over high heat. Place your spaetzle maker over the top, then pour half of the batter into the cup of the device. Quickly slide the cup back and forth to allow the batter to drop through. Repeat with second half of batter, working quickly, until all the batter is cooking in the pot.
- Set the spaetzle maker aside and give the dumplings a good stir in the pot. Let them cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until floating on the surface. Remove with a slotted spoon and place in a large bowl. Toss with butter and spices. Serve warm.
- Optional: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a garnish

Notes
- Expert Tip: The batter’s consistency is crucial. It should be slightly thicker than pancake batter. If it’s too thick, it won’t press easily through the spaetzle maker; if too thin, the noodles may disintegrate in the water.
- Storing and Reheating Leftovers: Refrigerate your spaetzle leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. To freeze your spaetzle, put it in zip-top freezer bags and remove as much air as possible from the bags Freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost in the refrigerator before reheating. Reheat spaetzle leftovers by melting a tablespoon or so of butter in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the spaetzle and stir until hot.
