- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon, freshly grated

Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, eggs, milk, salt, and freshly grated nutmeg. Mix until a smooth, thick batter forms.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil.
- Using a spätzle maker or a large-holed colander, press the batter through into the boiling water. Work in batches to prevent overcrowding.
