Knee-Oh-Kee





Inspired by another TV cooking program on WGBH Create, we made gnocchi last night. It's a potato-based pasta, which you roll with flour, eggs, flour, some salt, and more flour. Then you roll it out on a fork (or a cheese grate) to make some patterns and a groove for it to capture sauce. Tiring work! I think our gnocchi turned out too soft too... We froze it in preparation for guests this weekend. Let's hope they like it, if not we'll dial the emergency number and order Beauty's Pizza.

according to my master giorgia, the texture of gnocchi is dependent on the potato. The starchy US potatoes results in soft gnocchis.
