2 eggs (beaten)
1 teaspoon salt
dash of nutmeg (optional)

Spoon 2 tablespoons of batter onto a board. Using a butter knife, scrape thin slices of batter into the water. Boil for 5-7 minutes and transfer to a bowl and keep warm. Repeat until all the batter is gone. You also may use a spaetzel maker for this step.
