Can you use it to make spaetzle?

I've never used it to make spaetzle and honestly we threw this piece of junk out a long time ago

Actually, I have tried it, with less-than-great results. The spaetzle dough is too gooey and doesn't come through the holes well. It was difficult to clean up, and I lost a lot of dough. I use this mill a lot for other uses, and it is definitely NOT a piece of junk compared to other mills I have used.

Renee, I don't think this would be a good option because it would probably get too mushy as you rotated the blades. Try this instead: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/tyler-florence/spaetzle-recipe/index.html. I think Tyler does the best when instructing and if he thought the mill would work, he would probably have used it. Good luck!

I've never made spaetzle, so I looked up pictures on the Internet. I, personally, do not believe the holes on the grinder would be big enough to make this. It's more cheese-grater size holes, and it looks like from the pictures of spaetzle on the web, that you would need something with bigger holes. I still love this food mill and definitely don't consider it a piece of junk. However, it's not something I use all the time--just for taking the chunks out of my homemade soups.

I really appreciate the potato ricer for making spaetzle, a German dumpling noodle that my mother used to make. But I have no experience in using it or the food mill for mashed potatoes or deviled eggs. I usually make too large a quantity to make either of these tools a practical choice for me so I'm sorry I'm not in a position to answer your question directly. I personally find a hand mixer very convenient for either purpose. That way you can avoid having to scoop many small batches into the ricer or the mill in addition to working either tool. A hand mixer would mix it all at once and be easier to operate (in my opinion). I hope this was helpful.

Yes. If you understand the mechanics of brewing beer then it is possible to use any beer ingredient kit.

I use my 11" Dutch oven pan. Perfect size. Be sure to spray the dough holder with cooking spray ! This is a great tool. My very first batch of spaetzle turned out just right.

I don't know, but if you find out, please post it. I know that "whey", the watery by-product from making goat cheese can be used to make "Sauerkraut" out of cabbage, broccoli, and other vegetables! I don't have a local producer of whey, so finding out the answer to this question would be very interesting!!

Sorry I haven't tried to make that however, it does crush ice well and you can save lots of $$ making your own summer ice drinks like coolattas! Sometimes I put in coffee, or crystal lite, or lemon, or even tea! I have not had enough time to use it BUT when I do, no regrets!

I would say yes - can be used to make snow cones. The ice is truly shaved and very fluffy before the blender takes over. Imagine that you could simply use the manual shave control and shave ice into one of the pitchers then make snow cones from there. Sort of an expensive snow cone maker though....but a good idea for a secondary use.

Yes you can. It can also be used for soap and other things. I think there might be some videos on YouTube about it.

Yes, we think the recipe you describe would work well in the aebleskiver pan. Have fun!

I'm pretty sure you can but I would not recommend this item the metal is very soft and it broke very very easy. I got 1 use out of it and it fell on the counter and broke the tube in half.

Yes! If you go to YouTube and put in "Derwent Inktense how to" in the search box you will find several videos on how they can be used.

I've never made chapstick before but I imagine you can. Its very strong though so only a drop or two.

Once you make the dough to the appropriate consistency (not too firm), place the spaetzle maker horizontally on the top of your pot, fill the hopper with dough, and slowly move the hopper back and forth. If you've made the dough correctly, gravity will do the work for you and you will end up with perfectly sized and shaped spaetzle.

I don't know. It would seem that you could use spaghetti if you want to make your own. Nice concept, but they are all so small they don't hold enough knives.

You can use it in a crepe like Nutella. Or I made it into a mousse with whipping cream, filled a Belgium chocolate cup for a fancy dessert.

You can make anything! The consistency is like a slurpee, ver, very fine. It's a great machine!
