Spaetzle

The final product of this procedure is tiny noodles. The classic way of serving this German pasta is to cook some butter until it has a very light nutty flavor, to which you then add the cooked spaetzle, season, garnish with some chopped parsley, and serve. It can also be used in soups or with a variety of other pasta sauces.
