Cross-posted: Homemade gnocchi sounds pretty impressive to me!

Homemade gnocchi was soooo easy, but if it sounds impressive then maybe I'm selling myself short? OK homemade gnocchi, which is technically new and exciting, with the usual sauce that I know I can make and am good at making.So how many are coming for dinner? Show of hands?

Baking the potatos instead of boiling gives the gnocchi a lighter fluffier texture instead of the dense traditional texture.

Why not make some kind of homemade pesto for the whatever that word is (know what it is, dunno how to spell it!), then its an old fave AND new and amazing!

Why not make some kind of homemade pesto for the whatever that word is (know what it is, dunno how to spell it!), then its an old fave AND new and amazing!I agree with that, I love homemade pesto! And if you have a blender or food processor, it takes seriously 2 minutes.

Coming in late here... another gnocchi tip, instead of using a fork to break the (baked) potatoes up, invest in a potato ricer. My (Italian) MIL just about had a heart attack when I told her I was using a fork, she went and bought me a ricer. It makes a HUGE difference and pretty much eliminates the chances of ending up with heavy/sticky gnocchi.
