Spaetzle

1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salf
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 to 3/4 cup warm water
2 tablespoons butter

Toasted Bread Crumbs:
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup bread crumbs

1. Sift flour and 1/2 teaspoons salt together into a medium bowl. Make a hollow in the center of flour and add eggs and 1/4 cup warm water. Slowly stir the flour into the liquid.

2. Stir in remmaining water, little by little, until mixture has the consistency of cookie dough. Beat vigorously with a wooden spoon until small bubbles form.

3. Fill a large saucepan half full of water and add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Scoop up small pieces of dough with wet teaspoon and drop into water. Cook only enough spaetzle at one time to fill the pan without touching.

4. Boil uncovered for 6 to 8 minutes or until tender. Remove from water with slotted spoon and drain in a colander.

5. When all of the spaetzle is done, rinse with cold water and drain well.

6. To make toaster bread crumbs, melt 1/4 cup butter in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add bread crumbs and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

7. Just before serving, place spaetzle in a medium saucepan with 2 tablespoons butter. Cook, stirring constantly, over low heat until butter is melted. Sprinkle with toasted bread crumbs.
