Homemade Spaetzle: Can I Get Pregnant From This?
Have you ever tried Spaetzle? It’s a German Noodle. I hadn’t tried, nor made it, but was curious about it, since it’s so easy and quick to make. And compared to homemade Italian Pasta, Spaetzle seemed a cinch. So I made it here and I’m not in love. And I hope I’m not pregnant — Spaetzle’s shapes scare me, and its taste is just okay. Who makes it the best?
The recipe I used is linked here — Since I’m breaking up with Spaetzle, this post is fleeting.
Add Salt, Pepper and Nutmeg to Flour, then form a well for a Milk and Egg mixture.
Stir Milk and Eggs into the Flour to form a smooth, thick Dough.
The printed (halved) recipe is shown below and linked on the Food Network’s site.
Once the Dough is prepared, it’s pressed through a colander into boiling Water.
And then you end up with whatever happens naturally — Ghosts, sperm, baby octopus, etc.
What do you think they look like?
Cook for about 3 – 4 minutes or until they float to the surface.
Strain the Spaetzle, then fry in Butter until browned and serve with Chives.
The final photos turned out blurry, which is just as well. There was no romance. It’s too heavy. Auf Wiedersehen Spaetzle — Maybe we’ll meet again in Germany, Austria, Switzerland or Hungary.
I’ve seen a lot of variations and glad if it’s not supposed to look like this, hahaha. It’s a boy! JK
Hate to say it, but that is not what spaetzel is supposed to look like. Its not supposed to look like something that could get you pregnant – which it definetly does here!!!
I used to eat it all the time when I was a kid. They are supposed to be shaped like tight little corkscrews, not like swimming uphill s-p-e-r-m…
