Homemade Gluten-Free Gnocchi image

There is nothing like homemade gnocchi. They taste like potatoes with a bouncy texture, even without gluten. This gluten-free version uses a trick from the past when Italian cooks would toss potatoes into a fire or oven that was being cooled down so as not to waste the heat. Surplus baked potatoes became gnocchi because they have very little moisture (the secret to firm gnocchi) and they have a roasted potato flavor, taking your dish one step farther.

Time 1h41m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ½ pounds potatoes
1 egg at room temperature, lightly beaten
⅓ cup potato starch
1 tablespoon sweet rice flour
½ teaspoon fine salt
2 tablespoons rice flour, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prick each potato a few times with a fork and place on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tender when pierced with a knife, about 50 minutes. Cool until easily handled, about 10 minutes.
  • Peel potatoes and pass through a ricer or food mill into a large bowl. Make a well in the mashed potatoes with a wooden spoon and pour in egg; mix well.
  • Whisk potato starch, sweet rice flour, and salt together in a bowl. Sprinkle over potato mixture; stir until a soft dough has formed. Cut dough into 4 equal parts with a knife or pastry cutter.
  • Dust work surface with rice flour to keep dough from sticking. Roll out 1 piece of dough into a rope about 1 inch in diameter. Cut into 1-inch gnocchi. Gently roll each one with the back of a fork to create ridges. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Shake off any excess rice flour and let gnocchi rest, about 5 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add gnocchi in batches and cook, without stirring, until they float to the top, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these gnocchi turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but they just didn't have much flavor.

I was really excited to try these gnocchi, but I was disappointed. They were too dense and gummy. I won't be making them again.

These gnocchi were a bit too soft for my taste. I think I overcooked them a bit. But the flavor was good and they were still enjoyable.

Not bad! I'm not a huge fan of gnocchi, but these were pretty good. They were light and fluffy, and the flavor was spot-on. I would definitely make them again if I was craving gnocchi.

These gnocchi were a bit denser than I expected, but they were still very good. I liked the flavor and texture, and they paired well with the tomato sauce I made. I would definitely make these again, but I might try a different cooking method next ti

I was impressed with how well these gnocchi held up. I cooked them in a large pot of boiling water and they didn't fall apart. They also reheated well, which is a bonus. I'll definitely be making these again.

I've made gnocchi from scratch before, but this recipe was by far the easiest. The dough came together quickly and easily, and the gnocchi cooked up perfectly. They were light and pillowy, with a slightly crispy exterior. I served them with a simple
