If you are in the mood for a noodle dish with a twist to break up the routine of regular old

spaghetti or macaroni and cheese, then this German dish is for you. Spetletz is an egg noodle

dish that is served in browned butter. In Germany, it is also normally served with sauerkraut and

pork mixed in for additional flavor. This recipe has been used in my family for generations, and

now you can try it too.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour

6 eggs

Dash of salt

Cold water

Butter (as much or as little as desired)

Directions:

1. Mix flour, eggs and salt by hand. Add cold water until it has the consistency of a thick

cake batter.

2. Boil a pot of salted water (to a soft boil). Slice strips of the batter into the water and cook

until fluffy. Strain into a bowl of warm water.

3. Brown the butter in a small pan by cooking at the highest heat until browned. Strain the

noodles, toss and butter them. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add sauerkraut and pork as

desired. Enjoy.
