Categories     appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup sliced Vidalia onions
1/2 cup sliced cippolini onions
1/2 cup sliced shallots
Salt and pepper
1/4 to 3/4 cups flour
1 cup porcinis
8 ounces butter
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup baby shiitake mushrooms
2 tablespoons Madeira
2 tablespoons Marsala
1 pint daikon sprouts

Steps:

  • Gnocchi: In a small saute pan over high heat add the cippolini and Vidalia onions and the shallots. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to stir until the onions begin to brown and become loose. Remove from pan and place in the refrigerator. To make the gnocchi, puree the onions in a food processor. Place the puree in a bowl. Add the flour in small amounts and mix until well incorporated. Knead the dough for approximately 1 minute. Divide the dough and roll each portion into a long log about as thick as a penny, using a lightly floured surface. Cut into small pieces about 1/2 -inch. Place the gnocchi on a floured pan and refrigerate. Place the gnocchi in a pot of boiling water and cook until they begin to float, 1 to 2 minutes. When cooked place in an ice water bath. When cool, remove from ice water and refrigerate.
  • Porcini Butter: Dice porcinis and butter into small pieces. Place ingredients into a food processor and puree. Mix until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To Finish: In a saute pan over medium heat, add the butter. When the butter is just turning brown add the gnocchi and baby shiitakes and stir. When the gnocchi beginnings to brown, add the Madeira and Marsala and reduce for about 3 minutes. Finish with the porcini butter.
  • Place the gnocchi and baby shiitakes around the plate, spooning the sauce over the gnocchi and the mushrooms. Top with the daikon sprouts to serve.

Tips:

  • Select the right potatoes: For the best gnocchi, choose starchy potatoes like Russets or Yukon Golds. These varieties will give your gnocchi a light and fluffy texture.
  • Cook the potatoes perfectly: To ensure your gnocchi is cooked through, boil the potatoes until they are tender but still slightly firm. Overcooked potatoes will make your gnocchi gummy.
  • Use a potato ricer: A potato ricer will help you achieve the perfect texture for your gnocchi. It will create light and airy dumplings that will cook evenly.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Once you have combined the potato mixture with the flour and egg, mix it just until the ingredients come together. Overworking the dough will make your gnocchi tough.
  • Cook the gnocchi in batches: To prevent the gnocchi from sticking together, cook them in small batches. Drop the gnocchi into boiling water and cook until they float to the top. Then, remove them from the water with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate.
  • Serve the gnocchi immediately: Gnocchi is best served immediately after it is cooked. You can toss it with your favorite sauce or simply drizzle it with olive oil and Parmesan cheese.
