Spaetzel

1.5 cups of wheat flour
1.5 cups of white flour
1 tsp. of baking powder
1 tsp of salt
1/4 tsp of ground pepper
4 eggs
1 cup of 1% milk
2 tbs of butter 1 tbs of minced fresh parsley

Combint flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in a bowl. Whisk in eggs and milk and beat until the batter is cohesive but is still loose enough to be pushed through a sieve or spaetzel maker to make dumplings with identifiable strands of batter. Add additional flour if too loose or additional milk if too dry.
Bring a pot of water to boiling and reduce to a simmer. Drop tablespoons of the batter into a sieve held over the boiling water to make the dumplings. Remove them when they float to the top of the water. Remove to a platter. Melt butter as needed over a medium low heat in a saute pan.
