Self-made Spaetzle
The perfect self-made spaetzle recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
- 200 g Flour
- 2 Eggs
- 100 ml Water
- 1 tsp Salt
- Whisk all ingredients well with a whisk and then beat well with a wooden spoon. The longer the better. Let it swell briefly. The dough should be smooth, but not too runny.
- Heat plenty of water and salt well.
- Every Swabian now scrapes the spaetzle dough from a well-watered board into the hot water, but I take a potato press with a spaetzle insert and carefully press it into the water.
- As soon as the spaetzle floats on the surface (after 1-2 minutes) you can scoop them out with a skimmer. It is best to do this in portions.
