HERBED SPAETZLE



Herbed Spaetzle image

Spaetzle are little noodles native to Germany (as well as Alto Adige), where I lived for a while as a young cook. I love their irregular shape and soothing flavor.

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup whole milk
3 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (if reheating as a side dish)
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine the milk and eggs in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on low speed until the egg yolks break up. Add the flour and 1 teaspoon salt and mix on low speed until a thick, pancake-like batter forms. Add the chives, parsley, rosemary and thyme, and mix until well incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the batter to a smaller bowl (to fit more easily in the fridge), cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to let the batter rest.
  • Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil and have nearby a rimmed baking sheet greased with olive oil. Working over the boiling water and using a rubber spatula, press the batter in batches through the holes of a perforated broiling pan insert, a colander or the large holes of a box grater. The dough will form small dumplings as it drops into the water. Allow the spaetzle to rise to the surface and float for about 30 seconds before transferring it to the baking sheet and continue cooking the rest of the batter. (If you are not using the cooked spaetzle right away, toss it with a little olive oil and refrigerate, covered in plastic wrap, for up to 2 days.)
  • Reheat the spaetzle by following the directions in the recipe calling for it. Or, for a delicious side dish, heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil and the butter. When the butter is melted, add the spaetzle and cook, tossing occasionally, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Season to taste. Sprinkle with Parmesan, if using, and serve.

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.

FRESH HERB SPAETZLE

These little drop dumplings are easy to make - and eat. A classic spaetzle maker resembles a food mill fitted with a large-holed plate, but other utensils with 1/4-inch diameter holes will work too.

HERBED SPAETZLE



Herbed Spaetzle image

DH and I served Williams-Sonoma's Braised Short Ribs atop of this herbed spaetzle (also from Williams-Sonoma), with a side of broccoli rabe with pancetta and garlic. It was really tasty. DH and my colander did not have holes large enough to sift the dough so we used a metal steaming basket which worked perfectly.

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup milk
3 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt (plus more to taste)
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground pepper (plus more to taste)
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
3 tablespoons chopped fresh-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the milk, eggs, flour, 2 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp pepper, the nutmeg, and 1 Tb each of the parsley and chives. Whisk until smooth.
  • Fill a large pot 2/3 full of lightly salted water and bring to a brisk simmer over medium-high heat. Set a large bowl of ice water near the stove.
  • Put the batter in a spaetzle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions, slide the hopper and drop the spaetzle directly into the simmering water. Alternatively, hold a colander with large holes over the simmering water. Using a rubber spatula, push 1 cup of the batter through the holes directly into the water. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Drain the spaetzle well in a colander with small holes so noodles do not slide through. The spaetzle may be refrigerated, covered, for up to 4 hours.
  • Just before serving, in a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the spaetzle and saute, stirring frequently, until the noodles are golden brown and crispy, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper, and add the remaining 2 Tbs each of parsley and chives.
  • Transfer to a warmed large serving bowl and serve immediately.
