Hungarian Dumplings (spaetzle)

Ingredients

If you don't have a Spaetzle maker it's a little difficult to make.
It can be done by piping the dough out of a piping bag or by the
old fashion way of scraping a thin layer of dough out on a cutting
board then with a knife edge slicing off narrow cuttings and dropping
them into the boiling water. This method takes A LOT of practice.
2 eggs
2 tablespoons oil
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup milk
2 1/2 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
4 quarts water

Instructions

Using an electric mixer blend the eggs, oil, water and milk. Stir the flour together with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the baking powder in a dry bowl. Blend this mixture into the liquid. mix well and set aside for a moment. Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil and add the 2 teaspoons of salt. Using a Spaetzle maker or press squeeze the dough into the water. When the dumplings float to the surface they are done. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain in a colander. They can be served this way or pan fried with a little butter.
