Review on 🍽️ Stainless Steel Spaetzle Maker by Norpro - Model 3129 by Candace Parker

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Big hole, not quite stainless steel

A few years ago I tried to make spaetzle using a colander and the back of a spoon. I ended up with a big mess and gave up. Recently Jim and I took our sons to a local German restaurant. We had spaetzle in several ways, as an accompaniment to my goulash, as a mushroom dish and it was delicious. I decided to start making spaetzle again, this time using equipment specially designed for the job. The Norpro works well, a good sized bowl to fill and then dipping back and forth in boiling water. The grip is rubberized and the bottom of the bolt is black plastic, so it's not all stainless steel as the description would suggest. Also, it tends to stick a bit instead of gliding smoothly. The holes are the perfect size to finish the spaetzle like in the restaurant. The recipe that comes with the Spaetzlemaker Norpro is good and works well. I'm dying to try the recipe from the book Making Craft Pasta: How to Make a World of Handmade Noodles, Stuffed Pasta, Dumplings and More as everything I've made from that book has been an absolute winner.
