Hello everybody, hope you are having an incredible day today. Today, I’m gonna show you how to prepare a distinctive dish, potato gnocchi. One of my favorites. This time, I am going to make it a little bit unique. This will be really delicious.
Potato Gnocchi is one of the most well liked of current trending meals in the world. It’s enjoyed by millions daily. It’s simple, it’s fast, it tastes yummy. Potato Gnocchi is something that I have loved my whole life. They’re nice and they look wonderful.
Homemade gnocchi sounds tricky, but the actual process is pretty easy — and well worth the effort. Potato gnocchi are apparently easy to make, but they hide a series of small pitfalls that can determine the outcome of a bad dish. What are the secrets to make potato gnocchi that do not lose shape.
To begin with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook potato gnocchi using 6 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Potato Gnocchi:
- Take 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced.
- Get 2 cup all-purpose flour (and half a cup for work surface)
- Make ready 1 egg
- Prepare 1 tsp salt and pepper ( I'm using pink salt and peppercorn)
- Make ready 1 tsp each: garlic powder, onion powder, and dried parsley (I'm using a pre-blended mix)
- Get 1 water to boil potatoes in
When they rise to the top, let them cook for a minute or two and then remove them with a slotted spoon. How to make gnocchi, or light potato dumplings, made with baking potatoes, egg yolks, and flour. Gnocchi (pronounced NYO-kee), small, tender dumplings made with potatoes, are an excellent alternative. When made properly, they're light and tender, with a slight chew.
Instructions to make Potato Gnocchi:
- Boil potatoes for about 20 minutes. You want to be able to smash a chunk easily with the back of a fork.
- When your potatoes are drained and smashed, pour flour on a clean surface and make a 'well' in the center.
- Add your smashed potatoes in the 'well' you've made, and add your seasonings.
- Start folding the potatoes into the flour, starting with a fork. Once it starts to come together, make another 'well' in the center of the potato-flour pile. Add your egg, (I should've beated it first before adding it) and knead the potato flour into the egg.
- DO NOT OVER-MIX!!! Once the dough comes together, STOP. The dough should be slightly sticky and that is fine. Sprinkle a bit of flour to your work space and roll out the dough into ropes.
- Roll the rope into half-inch thickness. It will double in size when you boil it, so be aware! We're not making dumplings here, bruh!
- I cut my rope in half for easy cutting. Placed my dough ropes side by side, and sliced them into about a quarter of an inch to half-inch slices.
- Some people like to get fancy and make little designs on their gnocchi, like rolling them–individually–with a fork or tool; or even going in and slightly denting each one into "dimples". Honestly, I just want to eat. So, we're having plain pillow-shapes! :)
- If you're weird, like me, you'd go and wash out that same pot you boiled potatoes in, and fill with more water to boil the little gnocchi pillows in. I pieced in a gnocchi at a time, so they don't stick together while they boil.
- Oh yeah, boil for about 4 minutes, or until they start to float to the surface; and you're done!
- If you want to save some gnocchi for another day, these guys freeze well. Just lay them in a single layer on a plate, flash-freeze for about half an hour, then remove from the plate and throw them in a zip-lock bag for space-saving.
In all my research, I have yet to see a good recipe that doesn't warn the reader that its measurements are an approximation. First, start with baked potatoes, not boiled ones. Once you've peeled and mashed them, allow them to cool and steam to release before preparing the gnocchi dough. Gnocchi are a variety of pasta consisting of various thick, small, and soft dough dumplings that may be made from semolina, ordinary wheat flour, egg, cheese, potato, breadcrumbs, cornmeal or similar ingredients, and possibly including flavourings of herbs, vegetables, cocoa or prunes.
