Instructions

  1. Put the flour, eggs, quark, salt and soda in a bowl and beat with the wooden spoon like a spaetzle dough. Let rest.
  2. Meanwhile, bring water to a boil in a large saucepan and add salt.
  3. Briefly beat the dough again until it is supple. Now, with a teaspoon, add small dumplings to the boiling salted water until the batter is used up. Important: Only make the teaspoon half full with dough.
  4. After a few minutes, the knuckles can be poured off. Put the knuckles in a bowl.
  5. Heat the butter until it is liquid. Add a few dashes of Maggi seasoning - very important for the taste - and then pour over the knuckles.
  6. Serve with applesauce and fried potatoes.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
