Spatzle with Herbs

In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, yolk, and water with a fork

A still using the same fork, combine the flour, parsley, chives, thyme, and salt to form a sticky dough

The dough can be refrigerated for up to 4 hours

Bring about 2 liters of water to a boil in a large pot

Add 2 tablespoons of salt

Let it simmer

Place one-third of the dough onto a lightly floured surface and cut into small strips with a spatula

Lift the strips out of the bowl, allowing them to fall onto the boiling water

Cook until they rise to the surface

Remove them with a slotted spoon and place in a heatproof dish

Repeat this process until all the dough is used up

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat

Drizzle it over the cooked spaetzle

Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir to combine
