Ingredients You'll Need
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tbsp butter
2 onions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup Gruyère cheese, shredded, heaping
1/3 cup Emmanthaler cheese, shredded, heaping
1/3 cup Fontina cheese, shredded, heaping
Directions
1. Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and flour. Eventually a thick, somewhat pasty batter will form.
2. Set it aside for about 30 minutes to rest and let the bumps even out.
3. In a large pan caramelize the two onions.
4. Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add plenty of salt to the water.
5. Reduce to a simmer.
6. Add cheeses to the large pan with the onions.
7. Push the batter through the dull side of a flat cheese grater with the back of a ladle into the simmering water.
8. Once the squiggly pasta is cooked (it should only take a couple of minutes - they'll float when ready), add it to the pan of caramelized onion with all the cheeses.
