Time 2h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into large pieces
2 teaspoons salt, divided
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock, warmed
1 cup grated Fontina cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
6 fresh sage leaves, finely chopped
1 pinch freshly ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fill a large saucepan with water. Add potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil. Continue to boil until potatoes are very soft, about 15 minutes. Drain and run through a food mill or a ricer for a nice, smooth consistency. Place potatoes in a bowl and refrigerate until they are cool, 15 to 20 minutes; this will help keep them fluffy.
  • Dust 2 sheet pans with flour and set aside.
  • Mix cooled potatoes and 1 1/2 cups flour together on a clean work surface. Knead until dough is soft and smooth, 4 to 5 minutes, adding only enough flour so dough comes together and is not tacky.
  • Cut dough into 4 equal parts. Roll 1/4 of the dough into a 3/4-inch log. Cut the log into 3/4-inch pieces. Roll the pieces over a gnocchi board or the back of a fork to create ridges and place onto a floured sheet pan in a single layer. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Let rolled gnocchi dry for 1 hour before cooking.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Melt butter for cheese sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add chicken stock and continue to whisk until it thickens, about 3 minutes. Add Fontina cheese and Parmesan cheese; stir using a spoon until melted. Stir in sage and nutmeg. Stir in cooked gnocchi and transfer to a casserole or baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden brown and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.

This recipe was a disaster! The gnocchi were mushy and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a huge fan of gnocchi, but this dish was surprisingly good. The sage and cheese sauce was really flavorful and the gnocchi were cooked just right. I would definitely make this again.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use more garlic and maybe some red pepper flakes. Otherwise, it was easy to make and the gnocchi were cooked perfectly.

This baked gnocchi dish was a hit! The gnocchi were perfectly cooked and the sage and cheese sauce was divine. I added a few extra cloves of garlic and a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little extra flavor. Definitely a keeper!
