What does Cheese Spaetzle taste like?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Same here, in fact I am directly related to Martin Luther, and I am a former chef, spaetzle is a type of noodle like dish, made with flour, eggs, water, oil and a scrape of nutmeg, the dough can be cut or pressed through special noodle cutters/presses, I use a colander with large wholes, it can be short and stubby or long like spaghetti type noodles, most are cooked then cooled, and finished before serving in a pan with butter or bacon fat, a sprinkle of parsley and served as a side dish.

Cheese types can have it in the batter or on top when serving, Muenster or a milder swiss is nice inside it could be made with Kase Kremen, a cream/cottage cheese like product, I have made them with Quark, we have it here in Canada.

I think you'll like it. I liken it to a very upscale type of macaroni and cheese, because that's what it is. It's a special kind of pasta in a very cheesy sauce. Usually Emmentaler cheese is used. (Emmentaler cheese tastes sort of like Swiss cheese.) It's great when it has fried onions on top.

There's a recipe for it on the site below. If you check that out, you'll get an idea what it tastes like.

Enjoy your meal. German food tastes great :-)

I can't help you out, although I love Spaetzle. I usually had it with J?gerschnitzel und Pilze (pork cutlet with gravy and mushrooms), topped with FRESH cut "Peterslilie" (parsley). Delish.

"Guten Appetit" tomorrow with your family and friends.

It tastes like pasta with a cheesy aftertaste. Its delicious with caramelized onions.
