My oma from stuttgart used the board. She would bang out a pound of spaetzle in no time. When you get the technique with the knife down its the fastes plus you can vary the size for meal. Some meals get thicker spaetzle, like with onions and cheese, some get thinner.

This is by far the BEST video that I’ve watched to help me decide what kind of spaetzle press to buy. I made them years ago using a calendar method but I want to try again using a proper press. I was debating on a proper press but after watching you have a harder time cleaning and manipulating it, I decided to buy the the one with the plastic holder for the dough that you slide across. Not only did you go over the various kinds of presses, you provided the best recipe! I can’t wait to make these over the weekend once my press arrives on Amazon!

My mother and oma just used to have the dough in a bowl, held it over the boiling water and then used a soup spoon to make the noodles. That is the was I do it too, and looks like the examples you have there. I mainly make them for soup. One of the favourite things from my childhood.

My mother-in-law gave me the Spaetzle press machine over 40 years ago. She came here to Australia with it and taught me how to make Spaetzle. Our flour is different to German flour and I have had to try different flours and thicknesses of batter over the years to get my spaetzle right. I have found that mixing it in my food mixer is easier for me as I am old now and not as strong and also only half filling it makes it easier to squeeze the press. Yum, now I'll have to have some spaetzle for dinner tonight.

Mother made spaetzel only occasionally, as an addition to vegetable soup. We made them using her method to go with sauerbraten and gravy. Mother would hold the (fairly large) bowl of dough in her left arm at an angle. As a strip of that thick dough would begin to run over the edge of the bowl she would slice it off with a wet knife and let it drop into the hot soup or water. The knife would be dipped in the water each time. The dough strip would be as large or small as you wanted by controlling the slant of the bowl and how quickly it was cut off. These were certainly irregular shaped pieces of dough, basically fat in the middle and tapered toward the ends. Cleanup was just the bowl and (a table) knife. They all tasre good however made!

Honestly, I've never used anything but a paring knife and a frühstücksbrett. But unlike how you tried doing it with the scraper, I "snibble it". Only taking about half a width of the brett, or better said the length of the paring knife. That way you can vary from a long spätzl to an almost gnocchi. (Btw, thin comes from the speed you snibble. Slower = thicker, quicker = thinner.)

I had a small wooden cutting board that I tried to use for spaezle. I guess it was just a decorative cutting board, though. As soon as the hot water hit it I could smell glue, like old wooden children's toys. What I do is put the dough in a zip-top bag and I cut the corner. I squeeze the bag with one hand, to press out long spaezle, and with the other hand I'm cutting them with kitchen shears that are wet to prevent sticking. Although with my method, the dough should be a little wetter so it can be pressed easily out of the bag without breaking the bag.

Very useful. I don't have a Spätzle maker myself so I did the board and knife version, which went surprisingly well. Definitely will try again, especially if I can get a dough mixer cos making this stuff was quite an arm workout. Also interesting thing, the Pennsylvania Dutch have a vaguely similar foodstuff called Riwwle, where English rivvels come from, which is just an egg, cup of flour, and some salt mixed til a very dry crumbly mess, which is cooked in hot water. Very good for soup as there's always excess flour to thicken the soup alongside the Riwwle themselves
