Shape the Gnudi
Dust your work surface with flour. Take small pieces of dough and roll them into balls or dumplings, about the size of a golf ball. Place them on a floured tray.

Cook the Guanciale
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the guanciale and cook until crispy. Remove the guanciale with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the fat in the pan.

Make the Sauce
In the same skillet, add canned tomatoes and season with salt and black pepper. Crush the tomatoes with a spoon and simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
