Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
2/3 cup milk
5 large eggs
6 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 bunch spinach (about 1 pound), washed thoroughly and stems removed

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, nutmeg, and herbs in a large bowl. In another bowl, beat the milk, eggs, and 5 tablespoons olive oil. Whisk into flour mixture until smooth.
  • In a large pot, bring 6 quarts of water to a boil; add 1 tablespoon salt. Fill a potato ricer fitted with a 1/4-inch-hole attachment with batter and push it through into the boiling water, or use a colander, pushing batter through with a rubber spatula. Cook spaetzle until it floats to the top, about 30 seconds. Drain spaetzle in colander.
  • Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add spinach and saute until it starts to wilt. Add spaetzle, season with salt and pepper, and cook until hot. Serve immediately.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The spaetzle was so good that it made me forget all about the spinach.

This was a great recipe! I used whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour, and it turned out really well. The spaetzle was a bit denser than I expected, but it was still very tasty.

This recipe was amazing! The spaetzle was light and fluffy, and the spinach was cooked perfectly. I added a bit of extra garlic to the spaetzle batter, and it turned out even better than I expected. I will definitely be making this again.
