PUMPKIN GNOCCHI WITH HAZELNUT SAGE BUTTER

Steps:

• If you're using homemade puree, put it in a strainer and let it drain for at least 30 minutes. Then warm the puree in a pan to evaporate any excess moisture.
• Combine puree, egg, salt, pepper, nutmeg and enough flour to form a dough that holds together. Knead a few times, adding more flour if needed to make a non-sticky dough.
• Form dough into a long roll (or two) about 1 inch across. (At this point, you can dust it with flour and wrap in plastic wrap to refrigerate for later.).
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut off about 1/2-inch segments of dough. (We don't bother to shape them.) Boil about 8 to 12 gnocchi at a time. They're ready when they float to the top. Remove to a bowl.
• Heat the butter in a saute pan. Add the sage leaves and hazel nuts. Toss lightly with the gnocchi. Top with Parmesan and mix gently.
