Goldspatz Spaetzle Maker Lid with Scraper, 11" - #2202

So far I've used it twice. I'm giving it 4 stars only because the end product was amazing. This lid is a bit cumbersome to use if the dough is really sticky. I'm still working on refining the recipe so can't fault the lid yet. It does get hot and the scraper feels too flexible. Between rounds of batter I keep scraper and lid in a bath of cold water. I can't compare against other devices that look easier to use after further research. Hoping this will get easier as my dough and process is refined. In reality a 3 to 3-1/2 at the moment but I felt generous after eating the incredible Spaetzle at the end.

Easy to use, works great, will last forever. Every easy to clean.

easy to use and clean. spaetzels came out perfect

Cannot wait to try it.

Amazing!

My wife and I had never made spaetzle before. We researched the various options and decided on this one rather than the ones that have a tub moving along a track. Works very well. Fits properly over the pan we used in which we had water just off the boil. We did not encounter issues with too much heat resulting in burning of batter on to the spaetzle maker - top or bottom, or fingers. Extremely easy clean-up which wouldn't be the case with the tub type. We used the recipe that came with the spaetzle maker, but will likely try some of the other readily available recipes. Spaetzle drops through the holes and quickly rises to the surface of the water. A German friend of ours uses the "press" type, which is quite a bit more expensive, but there is less cleanup with this one and it works extremely well.I chose the Goldspatz Spaetzle maker over cheaper varieties because it is SS and i suspect of thicker material. It is very sturdy - I would purchase the same one again. Very pleased!

Love that this one function tool is small enough to take up so little room. Had some trouble getting the hang of how to use it, but it worked perfectly despite my ineptitude. It's a keeper.

Easy to use

A good quality piece of kitchen equipment. Perhaps it was my inexperience in using the device but left flat over the boiling pot the spaetzle dough would start to cook the dough before it was all squeezed through. The device would probably be better if suspended above the pot, or at an angle to it. Holding it over the pot is tricky as you need to hold the device securely to squeeze the dough through and it's difficult using one hand without a support for the device.

Exactly what I was looking for! Can't believe how quickly it was processed, shipped and received from Germany! Much quicker than our local stuff! Excellent store, thank you!

So easy to use couldn't image making noodles any other way.

Great Quality!

As expected--needs to be cleaned between batches!
