Spaetzle

"Spaetzle" is German for 'little sparrow,' which these noodles are supposed to look like. Paul says, it's wonderful and delicious!

Ingredients:

- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup milk or water
- 1 cup flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- dash of pepper

Directions:
In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, milk, flour, salt, and pepper with a fork. The batter will be thick.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

Press a few tablespoons of the batter at a time through a colander, into the boiling water. Stir once or twice to prevent sticking.

Cook about 5 minutes or until spaetzle rise to surface and are tender, then drain. Toss with buter or other toppings as desired.
