Gnocchi

Gnocchi are a type of Italian pasta traditionally made from potatoes. They are small, oval or round dumplings that can be prepared and served similar to pasta. These small vegan potato dumplings are captivating because of their unique shape. The dough is formed into a roll on a floured surface and then cut into small pieces. These pieces are often fluted with a fork to create a textured surface. This allows extra sauce to be forked.

Tips

Gnocchi can be well prepared. To reheat, either steep briefly in hot water or alternatively place on a baking sheet with baking paper and heat in the oven.

Sprinkle gnocchi with yeast flakes and heat in the oven.

Or how about herbs in the potato dough? If you like sage, you can chop it and add it.
