I don't know if this will help but it may spark some ideas. I have one of these pans and just put it over the pan of water. Then I put the dough in it, kind of trying to make a thin layer. Then i took a metal spatula and scraped it along the top so the dough got pushed through the holes and fell into the water.

Are they keto, or at least slightly ?

Dont know what you mean with spaetzle-maker. If its pic related or the technique in >>15340739
you don't get Spätzle but Knöpfle (same dough, but other form). The best results and the only practical way is a Spätzlepresse.

whenever i had kasespatzle in austria it was always with short little chunks of noodle (knopfle?). is this a regional dialect thing? the long noodles from the spatzlepresse i havent seen before

I correct myself. The webm is pretty good. I only made it with shorter scalers and got smaller product in the end.

I guess its more a restaurant vs eating at home thing. Knöpfle are considered more fancy because they require more work to make, so most people will make the Spätzle with a Spätzlepresse at home because its easier.
But also there are recipes where the longer ones are better for texture reasons, e.g. Lentils with Spätzle, Spätzle mit Spinat and Zwiebelrostbraten. If you make Käsespätzle it really doesn't matter.

okay and what if I don't have naruto levels of dexterity?

Use two serving spoons. One solid to scoop out the dough, and a slotted one to press the shit through. Messy, but it works well

No idea what any of this shit is but you could probably use a normal colander

I use "keto" as a shortcut. Just tryin to reduce wheat in my diet

The gadget in the OP is basically a dull cheese grater that has a convenient well for storing and smearing the batter. If you own a cheese grater and a spatula you can make a similar product.

a perforated pan and a bowl/bench scraper

that's not spatzle

then go gluten free
keto is a trendy meme and even if you follow a "keto diet", you aren't guaranteed to go into ketosis nor do you need a "keto diet" to enter ketosis
just reduce your eating, cut out the empty calories, and intermittent fast

Buy a Spätzle Shaker, its worth it for the convenience.

The same thing but slower.

Slow is smooth.
Smooth is fast.

Best suggestion itt without buying a shitty unitasker.
>>15342061
Also good but less likely a regular homecook would have one.

>>15342097
Don't do it, its a trap.

>>15342333
You won't comfortably get enough pressure to push the dough through.

>>15342061
It's Spätzle.

OP: I repeat myself, buy a Spätzlepresse. You can also mash potatoes with it.
