Gnocchi- Dishing Up Dumplings

From mystic_river1 17 years ago

Actually Gnocci are Italian dumplings and the toppings are whatever you wish. This recipe comes from 'Dishing Up Delicious Dumplings' by Kathy Hunt.

Using either a potato rice or a food mill and a large bowl puree the potatoes.
Addd egg, salt, pepper, nutmeg and enough flour to make a soft satiny dough.
Depending on how moist the potatoes are you amy need to add more or less flour.
Keep in mind that the more flour added the heavier the dough will be.
Place dough on a lightly floured surface and divide into 4 equal portions.
Roll dough between your hands and work surface until a 1/2 inch strip has formed.
Using a knife cut of 3/4 inch pieces and press one side of each piece into the times of a fork.
Place on a floured baking sheet and repeat process with other portions.
--------------
Bring salted water to boil in stock pot and cook gnocchi in batches about 5-8 minutes each batch
They will float to surface when ready.
Use a slotted spoon to remove dumplings and place on warmed plates.
Top with butter and Romano cheese, pesto or a marinara sauce and serve.

Hi Joymarie..thanks for the pictures...I hear gnocchi is a hard to make well. Why is that do you think?
I'm saving this to do on a weekend when I have nothing to do.

Thanks!
