Last month I posted about Gnocchi for Cheaters, or, making gnocchi with instant mashed potatoes (gasp)!
This week, I read a blog entry on how to make proper gnocchi and I wanted to share it. This comes from Letizia of Madonna del Piatto - an Italian woman who runs a cooking school and B&B with her husband in Umbria. I've been a long-time fan of her blog!
I should add that I did just make the Gnocchi for Cheaters last week, and was exhausted after nearly 2 hours of work. The idea of adding the potatoes and mashing proper gnocchi doesn't excite me. However, I fully agree with her recommendation to drink red wine with gnocchi. And, in this case, the cook also needs it during the tedious task of forming each of those little pasta puffs!
We had a bottle of Luna Vineyards 2005 Sangiovese, and it was perfection.

Homemade Gnocchi is just so delicious. Our neighbour gave us some for lunch last weekend :)
ReplyDeleteMaking gnocchi with my grandmother is one of my fondest memories...perhaps why it's never tasted quite so good since she passed away, but still rather tasty indeed :)
