What it is
This is a package of classic potato gnocchi made by Nevo Pasta. Gnocchi are small dumplings, typically made from potato, flour, and egg. This particular variety is plant-based. The gnocchi are pre-formed and ready to be cooked. They are a convenient way to enjoy a traditional Italian dish at home. The 9 oz package contains enough for a small serving or as part of a larger meal. These dumplings offer a soft texture when prepared correctly.
How people cook with it
Gnocchi are versatile and can be paired with a variety of sauces and ingredients.
- Tossed with pesto sauce
- Served with a simple tomato sauce
- Baked with cheese and marinara
- Added to a hearty vegetable stew
To prepare, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the gnocchi to the boiling water. They will sink to the bottom initially. Once the gnocchi float to the surface, they are typically cooked. This usually takes only a few minutes. Remove the cooked gnocchi with a slotted spoon and drain them well. You can then toss them with your favorite sauce, butter, or oil. Some people like to pan-fry them after boiling for a slightly crispier exterior.
How it differs from similar foods
This gnocchi is plant-based, meaning it does not contain egg, which is common in many traditional gnocchi recipes. This can affect the texture and richness slightly. The texture is generally soft and pillowy, characteristic of well-made gnocchi.
