💡 Tips

For a richer flavor, sauté some diced bacon, then mix the cooked spaetzle with the bacon drippings.Ensure the water is only simmering (not boiling) to prevent the dumplings from breaking apart.Fresh parsley can be substituted with dried parsley if unavailable, but fresh will offer a brighter flavor.
