WHAT’S SPÄTZLE?

German spätzle noodles are a type of pasta made with fresh eggs. Spätzle is found in quite a few European countries apart from Germany, like Switzerland, Austria, and Hungary. These noodles are something I was fortunate enough to grow up with and are high up on my list of comfort foods. They made an appearance on special occasions and were usually served with beef rouladen, schnitzel, or a potful of goulash. Of course, when my mom cooks, she cooks to feed an army, so my brothers and I would be eating spätzle leftovers for days. More about what to do with spätzle leftovers later, that is, if you even have them!

WINGING A PASTA SALAD

Do you know what I think? No one should need a recipe for pasta salad! No one. A pasta salad–and salads in general–is just a mixture of raw or cooked vegetables tossed with noodles and a zingy salad dressing. Sometimes there’s protein, sometimes there’s not. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to knock pasta salad. I love pasta salad. It’s one of my favourite things to bring to a gathering because it’s so darn easy to make. When you know how to make pasta salad, you don’t need to think about what to pack for a picnic or bring to a potluck. There’s freedom in learning the formula. Let me show you.
