Spatzli
Swiss Egg Noodles
3 C flour
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 C water (use more if necessary)
1/4 C butter
Sift the flour, salt and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Pour eggs and 1/4 cup of the water in the middle of flour mixture. Beat with a wooden spoon. Add more water, just enough to make the dough slightly sticky (yet elastic and a bit stiff). Using a colander, press the dough through the holes and into a pot of salted boiling water. Boil noodles for about six minutes or until they rise to the surface. Remove noodles from the water with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Melt the butter in a skillet; brown the noodles over low heat. Suggestion: Serve the browned noodles as a side dish.
Note: Spatzli can also be added to soups or stews, but skip the browning step.
