This recipe was given to my mother by her best friend Sophie. It is perfect to use in Chicken Paprikash or even Chicken Soup. The spaetzels can either be cooked directly in the soup or like pasta in salted water.
Ingredients:
3 eggs
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
3 cups flour
Directions:
1. Beat eggs, water, and salt together.
2. Add flour 1 cup at a time you might not use it all. (Forgot to mention when I originally posted this that when adding the flour do it one cup at a time until the proper consistency is reached. It should be thick and a bit sticky but not stiff.)
3. Carefully place batter in a colander, with fairly large holes, over the pot of boiling soup or water.
4. With a wooden spoon force the batter through the holes.
5. Cook the spaetzels for about 5 minutes stirring occasionally.
