WHAT IS KÄSESPÄTZLE ANYWAYS?
Käsespätzle is a Bavarian egg noodles dish with butter and cheese. In English the name means ‘cheese spätzle’ and is pronounced ‘kays-shpatz’l’. Sometimes the spelling ‘kaesespaetzle’ is used in English to convey the umlaut a sound which falls between a and e.
The word ‘spätzle’ (plural for Spatz) itself means ‘little sparrows” and has to do with the shape of the little egg noodles.
