Directions
-
In a large bowl, stir the flour, eggs, milk and salt until smooth (the dough will be sticky). In a large saucepan over high heat, bring the water to a boil. Pour the dough into a colander or spaetzle maker coated with cooking spray and place it over the boiling water.
-
With a wooden spoon, press the dough through until small pieces drop into the boiling water. Cook for 2 minutes or until the dumplings are tender and float. Remove with a slotted spoon and toss with the butter. If desired, sprinkle with parsley.
