Gnocchi Ingredients

Method

Gnocchi Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Boil the russet potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 20-25 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly before peeling.

  2. 2

    Make the Dough

    Pass the peeled potatoes through a potato ricer into a large bowl. Add the flour, egg, and salt. Mix gently until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overwork the dough.

  3. 3

    Shape the Gnocchi

    Divide the dough into four pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into 1-inch pieces and press each piece lightly with a fork to create ridges.

  4. 4

    Cook the Gnocchi

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water. Cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
