Cheesy Spaetzle

COOK TIME

In Germany, it's common to see spaetzle served alongside your main dish; it's just as common as having rice or potatoes for dinner. While we love simple spaetzle, we knew that adding a little cheese could make it even better...and that's just what our Cheesy Spaetzle is.

What You'll Need

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1 3/4 cups water
  • 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) butter
  • 1 teaspoon chopped parsley
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyere or Swiss cheese

What to Do

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and the pepper; mix well. Add eggs and water; mix with a wooden spoon until smooth.
  2. Bring a large pot of water to a hard, rolling boil over high heat; add remaining salt. In batches, drizzle batter from a wide slotted spoon into boiling water. When spaetzle (noodles) float to the top of the water, remove then with a slotted spoon and drain in a colander.
  3. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add noodles, parsley, and cheese. Cook 5 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted, stirring gently.
