Have you got some wild garlic left over? Then be sure to try these spätzli.
The dough, made with Knöpfli flour, quark and fresh or dried wild garlic, is beaten until bubbles rise, then scraped or pressed through a sieve directly into boiling water.
Tossed in butter and topped with Parmesan, they work as both side dish and main course.

To make sure it succeeds
Be careful when foraging
Lily of the valley and autumn crocus look similar to wild garlic and are poisonous. Only wild garlic smells of garlic.
Beat for a long time
The longer you beat the dough, the lighter the spätzli will be.
Dried wild garlic
Outside the season, use 25 g of dried wild garlic instead of 50 g of fresh.
Frequently asked questions
