Italian Gnocchi 1992 Italian

    Cuisine:

    I was invited to my DD's for dinner, and the two of us decided we would try making gnocchi. A good friend makes these all the time, so I was quite familiar with the finished product and I was interested to see if this recipe would hold up to hers! My challenge in this recipe was figuring out how to shape them properly...which, after I got the hang of it, they turned our really well. I served them with a simple rose sauce. I would definately come back to this recipe, as it was almost fool proof!!! Thanks for the posting!!

    Italian Gnocchi 1992 ( Italian ),this recipe is made with instant potatoes. Is fast and easy. These dumplings come out firm and yet smooth, not chewy or gummy to the tooth. I also add 1/4 cup romano grated cheese to my recipe and then today actually measured 1/8 scant tsp nutmeg, for more flavour. also dont forget to salt your water when boiling…,I was invited to my DD’s for dinner, and the two of us decided we would try making gnocchi.

Family loved them too! There was absolutely no sticking to the teeth, which was an EXCELLENT thing about them. We ate them with a Classico Brand Pesto sauce, and were very tasty. 🙂 Looking forward to making them again!

    This Is a Tip: Do not Leave Dough on Counter Covered to Roll Out or Finish Later. Always Fast Freeze After Cutting. the Reason I Do This Is That Sometimes, the Humidity , Flour, Potato Reactions, After Sitting Out Can Make Everything Return Back to the Soft Gooey Stage. Has Happened to Me When used Regular Bolied Fresh Potatoes, So I Always Do This Now.
