Spätzle With Lentils from Scratch (Gluten Free)
ZWT6 Before the invention and use of mechanical devices to make these noodles, they were shaped by hand or with a spoon and the results resembled Spatzen (meaning little sparrows) This theory may reflect that traditional Spätzle are never shaped. Serving amount is a guess. From http://noglutenrequired.blogspot.com.
