Cooking tips 💡

• The batter consistency depends on the egg size, so it's important to adjust the egg and milk to a combined weight of about 110g.
• Even without a spätzle maker, you can easily make it using a large-holed potato ricer or a steamer rack.
• Pan-frying the boiled spätzle in butter gives them a slightly golden exterior and a chewy, fluffy interior, doubling the texture.
