• Cut potato in half and scoop flesh into a bowl. Mash or blend until smooth. Add ricotta cheese, egg, kosher salt, and cayenne; mix with a spoon until smooth and combined. Stir in flour until mixture comes together into a sticky ball of dough, adding more flour as needed.
• Transfer to a floured surface and knead gently, adding flour as needed, until no longer sticky. Divide into 8 portions. Roll into ropes about 1/2-inch thick, using flour as needed. Dust ropes with flour and cut with a bench scraper into 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer pieces onto a sheet pan and let dry on the pan for 15 to 20 minutes, or refrigerate until needed.
• While gnocchi dry, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until browned and crisp, 7 to 10 minutes. Add butter and cook until lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off heat and stir in rosemary. Reserve until needed.

SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using a fork, lightly prick holes all over the sweet potatoes. Set the sweet potatoes on a foil-lined roasting tray and bake until fork tender, 30 minutes.
• While still hot, cut the sweet potatoes in half and scoop the flesh into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add the 1 cup Parmesan, olive oil, brown sugar, thyme, nutmeg, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Beat on medium speed until the ingredients come together. Increase the speed to high and mix until light and airy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Dump the sweet potato mixture onto a lightly floured work surface and gently knead, adding small amounts of flour at a time, until the dough comes together and holds as a single mass. When done, the dough should be light and tender to the touch. Place in a floured bowl, cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Divide the dough in half on a lightly floured work surface. Roll each half into a 3/4-inch-thick rope. With a sharp knife, cut the ropes into 1-inch "pillows."

• While the gnocchi are cooking, set a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and melt until frothy and nutty-smelling. Drain the gnocchi, reserving some of the cooking water; add the gnocchi straight to the saute pan. Toss to brown lightly, then season with salt and pepper. Once browned, you can add a little of the pasta water to make a light sauce. Divide among serving plates and shower with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.

Steps:

• Pierce sweet potato skin with a fork in several places. Wet a paper towel, and place on a glass pie plate. Put sweet potato on the towel, then fold wet paper towel over top of it loosely. Place in microwave, and cook on high for 3 minutes. Turn potato over, cover again with the towel, and cook an additional 3 minutes. Test for tenderness. When potato can be easily pierced through with a fork, it is done. Cool slightly. Cut potato in half and cool a little more. Scoop out flesh into a measuring cup. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper and sprinkle lightly with flour. Use about the same measurement of flour, starting with a little less. Work into a dough that is slightly sticky. Roll portions of the dough into about a 1"-round snake. Chop into about 1" chunks. Using well-floured fingers and board, roll each chunk into a little shell. (lots of youtube videos that show this technique). Place on cookie sheet in single layer to dry, until ready to cook. When ready to cook, boil a large pot of well-salted water. Drop gnocchi in, about a dozen at a time. When they rise to the top, cook for about 1 minute, then remove with a spider to the sauce. Keep warm.
• Sauce: Heat oil in large frying pan. Saute onions until soft. Add mushrooms and cook for a few minutes. Add garlic - cook about 30 seconds. Splash in a little wine or water, and continue cooking on low. Add the tomatoes now, if using. Add salt, pepper and seasonings to your liking.
• When gnocchi are ready, have pan on medium low heat. Add gnocchi to mushroom-onion mixture as they are done. Keep warm. Serve with grated Parmesan.
