Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, scrubbed
1 cup (or more) all purpose flour
1 large egg yolk, beaten to blend
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
Large pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1 tablespoon olive oil
Special Equipment
Potato ricer or food mill

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Pierce potatoes in several places and bake until soft, about 1 hour. Cool slightly. Cut potatoes in half. Working in batches, scoop hot flesh into potato ricer or food mill. Rice potatoes onto rimmed baking sheet; spread out and cool to room temperature.
  • Line large baking sheet with parchment paper. Transfer potatoes to large bowl. Add 1 cup flour; toss to coat. Form well in center of potato mixture. Add egg yolk, coarse salt, and nutmeg; stir with fork until mixture is evenly moistened (mixture will look shaggy). Turn mixture out onto lightly floured work surface. Knead until dough comes together, sprinkling dough with flour very lightly only if dough is very sticky. Form dough into ball; divide into 4 pieces. Roll each piece between hands and work surface into 3/4-inch-thick rope. Cut each rope into 3/4-inch pieces. Place gnocchi on prepared baking sheet.
  • Working in batches, cook gnocchi in large pot of boiling salted water until gnocchi rise to surface of water. Continue to simmer gnocchi until cooked through and tender, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, carefully transfer gnocchi to bowl. Drizzle gnocchi with olive oil and toss to coat. DO AHEAD: Gnocchi can be made up to 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.

Overall, this was a disappointing recipe. I wouldn't recommend it.

The sauce was too oily for my taste.

Not a fan of the texture of these gnocchi. They were too gummy.

These were a bit bland. I think I needed to add more seasoning.

I had some trouble getting the gnocchi to hold their shape, but they still tasted good.

The gnocchi were a bit too dense for my taste, but the sauce was excellent.

Delicious and easy to make. I added some extra garlic and Parmesan to the sauce.

These gnocchi were a bit more time-consuming to make than I expected, but they were worth it. They were so delicious and satisfying.

I've tried many gnocchi recipes, but this one is by far the best. The gnocchi were so soft and pillowy, and the sauce was flavorful and creamy.

These potato gnocchi were a hit with my family! The texture was light and fluffy, and the flavor was delicious. I will definitely be making these again.
