Photo: Herb Spaetzle Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- Kosher salt
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup mixed chopped herbs (parsley, chives, marjoram, oregano or dill are great)
- Extra-virgin olive oil
Directions
Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil over medium heat.
In a small bowl whisk together the eggs and milk until they are a homogeneous mixture.
In a large bowl, add flour and make a hole in the flour. Add a pinch of salt and using a fork, gradually combine the milk/egg mixture with the flour. Mix until they are just combined. Stir in 1/4 cup of the herbs.
Place the batter in a colander over the boiling water. Using a rubber spatula or a spaetzle maker, push the batter through a colander into the boiling water. Boil the spaetzle for 2 to 3 minutes or until firm. Drain the spaetzle and place in a medium bowl. Add some olive oil and the remaining 1/4 cup of herbs. Toss to coat evenly and serve immediately.
What cuties!

My family loved this recipe. Adding the herbs made it much more interesting than the usual "plain" spaetzle. No problem pushing it though the colander with the back of a spatula, but my colander has large holes. It would never work with a colander with really small holes, or a wire mesh one.

Was a easy recipe to put together. I should have added more milk so that it would be easier to push through a colander. I ended up using a zip top bag with a small hole. after they came out of the water I sauteed them in some butter then added the remaining chopped herbs.
Everyone liked it and I would make this recipe again.
