Spätzle

Found as a giffy recipe on Reddit. Really looks good. Spätzle described as "essentially a fresh pasta (although it bears some similarity to dumplings as well). It goes really well with meat stews and creamy sauces." Here's the link to the original recipe on ChefSteps.

Ingredients

300 g Bread flour , unbleached
1/8 tsp Nutmeg
5 g Salt
¼ tsp White pepper
230 g Sour cream
210 g Whole eggs, about 4 large
50 g Egg yolks, about 3 large
1 Tbsp. Butter, unsalted

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the sour cream, eggs, and egg yolks until thoroughly combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and whisk thoroughly to combine.

2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Place whatever device you’re using to shape the spaetzle—a spaetzle maker, colander, box grater, slotted spoon, etc.—over the pot. Working in small batches, press the batter through the holes and into the boiling water below. Cook for 5 to 10 seconds, until set, and scoop out with a slotted spoon. Set aside on a sheet tray to cool, and repeat with the remaining batter.

3. To a cast-iron pan over medium heat, add the butter and cooked spaetzle, and saute briefly until warmed through and lightly golden brown.
