1. Simmer the cauliflower in water with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt for 1 minute, drain and squeeze out as much water as possible.
Mix the cauliflower with the grated parmesan.
|
2. Add to the mix the eggs, flour,baking powder, pepper and nutmeg and stir to make a nice dough that is not too stiff. Add the other 1/4 teaspoon salt. |
. Add flour by the tablespoon if you need to get a loose dough. Continue to stir. |
3.Here is a set up I use. You can create your own. I made a pie pan with holes. I put about 2 cups water in the bottom of this panI then oil the top and take a teaspoon of dough and scrape onto the pan. . You can also just use a small amount ot water. these dumplings are delicate so I don't boil them in water. |
Steam the Spaetzle for 5 minutes. |
4. The spaetzle will be done when they feel firm. The will be a bit puffy as well. Repeat this process with the rest of the dough. |
If you like you can snip the finished dumplings. |
These have a nice texture and can be reheated well. You have replaced 70 percent or so of the flour with cauliflower. |
