 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    3      cup           Flour -- unbleached
    1      teaspoon      Salt
      1/4  teaspoon      Nutmeg
    4                    Eggs; large -- beaten
      1/4  cup           Butter
 
 Sift flour, salt and nutmeg together in a bowl.  Pour eggs and 1/4 cup water into
middle of flour mixture, beat with a wooden spoon.  Add enough water to make the
dough slightly sticky, yet keeping it elastic and stiff. Using a spaetzle machine
or a colander with medium holes, press the noodles into a large pot full of
boiling salted water.  Cook noodles in the water about 5 minutes or until they
rise to the surface.  Lift noodles out and drain on paper towels.  Brown noodles
in melted butter over low heat.
