I made spaetzle for the first time at Thanksgiving. It was spaetzle and green beans with bacon in a garlic butter sauce.

It was delicious but almost killed me making it. I didn’t have a colander(I think it got thrown out last time I moved) so tried to use a strainer, the holes were too small and wouldn’t work. I ended up using a Manual lemon juicer. My girlfriend misread the recipe and made 20 servings of the batter.

By the time I dinner was ready I was barely able to lift my fork from trying to make all the spaetzle.

if you run into the same problem again: use a soaking wet cutting board and knife. use the back of the knife to push single spaetzle over the board into hot water. dont forget to re-wet before putting the next load onto the board.

obviously the thing OP suggested is much better. but i am certain you make better progress than with a joucer.

Yes. Cutting the spätzle from a knife is the more traditionwl method. But it takes some practice.
