Looking for German Recipe
 
My mother made this recipe YEARS ago, and now my sister is craving it. Mom has passed, but I was hoping you can decipher this spelling and share your recipe.

It is called "schtertz" - the spelling is probably wrong, but it sounds like......."sht-air-tz"

We would be so greatful if you knew of this recipe.

Thanks

I think you might get more help if you could tell us what sort of food it is?

Is it something shaped liked a pig's tail (Sterz)?

I'd like to help too, but need more info such as: dessert, main dish, etc.

Our German friends here probably will be able to help you, but you could GOOGLE German foods or go on foodnetwork.com

do you mean snitz, which are dried apples?

Any listing of ingredients? Pie, main dish, appetizer?

Thanks for your input but as I remember (last time I had it was 50 years ago) it looked like scrambled eggs but FIRMER. Mom always made it with a dandoline (sp) salad (YUCK) It was a main dish. Back then we seldom ate meat so it was a basic staple. Thanks

no, not shaped like a pigs tail, not sweet - no apples.

What was in it? Could it be spaetzle, which are dumplings? Here's a recipe that shows a picture and the ingredients: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/german-spaetzle-dumplings/

No recipe here .... just an idea from something I had at my Swiss/German friends home.

A main course dish that's homemade which reminded me more of pasta, yet was kind of scrambled up like eggs. Anyone know what that would be?
