Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh marjoram
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup white wine
Parmesan, grated, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl combine 3/4 cup water, the eggs, salt and flour. Whisk well, until the dough is soft and sticky.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. When the butter begins to foam, add the garlic, chives, parsley and marjoram. Cook until the butter begins to brown, about 1 minute. Add the white wine and allow to reduce for a minute. Keep warm.
  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Transfer the spaetzle batter to a colander with small holes. Set the colander above the boiling water and, using a spatula or bench scraper, press the batter through the holes and directly into the water. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the spaetzle float to the surface. Drain and immediately add the spaetzle to the pan with the butter sauce. Over high heat, toss the spaetzle and the sauce together for 30 to 40 seconds, or until the spaetzle sizzles. Sprinkle with some grated Parmesan and serve.

HERBED SPAETZLE

These bite-size dumplings are called spaetzle and originated in Germany.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Quick & Easy Recipes

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup whole milk
8 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tablespoon thyme leaves
1/4 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Bring milk and 4 thyme sprigs to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat. Discard thyme. Transfer milk to a blender; add parsley, thyme leaves, and eggs. Blend until combined.
  • Whisk flour and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in milk mixture until smooth.
  • Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Working with about 1/4 cup batter at a time, press batter through 1/4-inch holes of a colander or spaetzle maker into boiling water. Cook until spaetzle float to top, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to an ice-water bath. Drain.
  • Melt butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the spaetzle; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with remaining thyme.

Tips:

  • To make the spätzle dough, use a combination of all-purpose flour and semolina flour. Semolina flour will give the spätzle a slightly chewy texture.
  • Make sure the water is boiling before adding the spätzle dough. This will help the spätzle cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot when cooking the spätzle. Cook the spätzle in batches if necessary.
  • Once the spätzle is cooked, drain it well and then toss it with melted butter and herbs. This will help keep the spätzle from sticking together.
  • Serve the spätzle immediately with your favorite sauce or gravy.

Conclusion:

Herb spätzle is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. It's perfect for any occasion, from a casual weeknight meal to a special holiday dinner.
