with noodles

Bring the milk to a boil with the pasta (or rice) and add butter, salt, and lemon zest, if desired. Don’t forget to stir! Let the mixture boil for 3-5 minutes, then remove from the heat. Gradually add the eggs while stirring vigorously. Pour the mixture into a well-greased dish and place it in a hot water bath for one hour. Remove the rim of the Hans and place it on a plate. Serve with a cherry, rhubarb, or dried fruit sauce. Tip: If you let the Hans cool slightly before turning it out, it will hold its shape better.
