In order to make the Spätzle making process a bit easier, it is well worth buying a special Spätzle maker, there are quite a few different models available, choosing a "Spätzle press" for example is always a good choice. And your Apples look wonderful too - I did not use the Saran Wrap either but had opted for parchment paper and foil. Wonderful dessert!Andrea_TheKitchenLionesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188562947486964076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4755985719937028316.post-89464965160276712262013-01-16T21:22:53.472-06:002013-01-16T21:22:53.472-06:00I have a different version of the book and it has ...I have a different version of the book and it has the use of parchment instead.

" Any dessert would taste delicious with that concoction on top. What a great idea. Everytime I think of going off the written page and being creative in the kitchen, it just doesn't work. By the book, by the cookbook, my mantra for Life. My Bad. Nice job, by the way. We all had similar experiences with the spaetzle. Tough to get on the dinner plate but delicious once it got there. Glad Gary liked it.

Apparently later editions of this cookbook say to place a round of parchment atop the apples...not plastic wrap.
