In a bowl, mix together the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and nutmeg. Make a hole in the middle of the mixture and add the eggs and milk.

By hand, mix the eggs and milk and gradually draw in the flour from the sides until the entire mixture is combined and smooth.  Let the dough sit for 10-15 minutes. 

Add 1/2 teaspoon salt to 6 quarts of boiling water.

Use a spaetzle maker or press dough through a colander. Stir gently, the spaetzle will rise to the top. Boil for about 5 minutes, before straining them out.
