How to Make the Best Gnocchi | Serious Eats

[@morgrath]

Just wanted to leave a comment here saying that I really like that you guys have added voiceover to these short videos, rather than just being captions and music. It makes them a lot better when not totally focused on them, like having them on a second monitor or whatever. Great change!

[@RonJDuncan]

Going to say that the method here is way easier than what I dealt with in culinary school. I love tips.

[@cookingwithchaos4080]

way easier than Julia Child's method too

[@icarocovenant]

Great tips! I didn’t have potato ricer and grated mine, and they turned out beautifully!

[@richardrice8195]

i just wanted to hear someone pronounce gnocchi

[@lorettarikki]

Its pronounced Nyoh-ki not nio-ki 😫🇮🇹

[@wiredawg2005]

Me too...LOL!!!

@@lorettarikki Americans say it weird. We say it properly in the UK

Nee-oo-key.

[@ivannovotny4552]

Such a relaxing voice... perfect for Desiderata recital.

[@saulgoodwin8328]

I tried this. Insanely good. Especially with HOMEMADE tomato sauce. Do not use store bought.

[@MM-og7yj]

Thank you so much for answering my question without being asked as to how egg to potatoes ratio

[@zacke1434]

Here's a pro tip for everyone, roast your potatoes on a bed of kosher salt, like quarter of an inch thick! Helps draw out moisture and makes for super light gnocchi!

[@icarocovenant]

Thanks for the tip! This helped a lot with mine.

[@gabrielruiz6999]

He quedado impresionado con los videos de este canal, breves y al grano, explicando todo muy bien. Felicidades!

[@hawaiidispenser]

Guess I should finally buy a ricer!

[@asiburger]

The rigagnocci is actually really useful. The grooves increase surface to which sauce can adhere better.

[@CrystalStearOfTheCas]

the grooves are useful, he said owning a special tool if you're not a pasta maker is a bit superfluous

Who else is here from tiktok? I just wanted the pronunciation🤣

@Serious Eats I'd love to make this but unfortunately I'm one of those weird gluten intolerant weaklings. Is there anything I should consider when picking or crafting a gluten free flour from scratch to make this recipe as good as it can be while still being gluten free? It would be great if you peeps could do a deep dive on the science and techniques required to replicate dishes for those of us who just suck as eating food the old way. There's so many dishes I miss out on or still eat that just are no where near as good without glutenous flour, but the health downsides just aren't worth the meals... like by a long shot. But I would love to try to make them the best they could be while still gluten free.

[@rikich15]

go for rice flour and keep the egg yolk

[@vpm7ginnie784]

How much flour to 1kll potato's ?. I don't use egg

[@taiyabali4751]

1. can i use boiled potatoes rather than baked? 2. what flour to use exactly? Someone, please help me out here. tia

Do you need a potato ricer?

[@Mae-rx5mo]

Ellie You can use a fork to rice it. I did before I had a ricer!

[@jrt1776]

Grew up making these by hand. We rolled then with fingers

You say you rolled them with your fingers How?

[@old_jota]

I quite like Hearth but definitely can imagine that dude being a tough boss. How does he compare to other chefs you've met?

[@vpm7ginnie784]

My gnocchi came out mushy when I boiled them why ? I used a whole eg g Baked the potatoes to avoid moisture. Added semolina flour to the plain flour. They weren't sticky they looked like the best I ever made. Yet when it came to the boil they didn't hold their shape the water went very cloudy.

[@vpm7ginnie784]

So disappointed

[@genevieve1963]

I always do just one or 2 gnocchi in the boiling water before I decide if it needs more flour. If it falls apart in the water it needs more flour. It’s takes the 2 p’s..practice and patience…and a glass of Pinot doesn’t hurt 😂

[@Jcewazhere]

Okey gnocci.

[@enkeltrik]

This, with a pesto of datterini & parmigiano.

Who else came from HowToBasic? :)

[@atledos5357]

hello there

[@sanazjaan3080]

I made this and my gnocchi dissolved in my water 🥲

[@rachelroth5322]

That's sad

[@sanazjaan3080]

rachel roth I spent hours preparing all for my gnocchi to dissolve at 11pm and I had work the next day so I just ate the sauce I made and slept hungry.

[@rachelroth5322]

@@sanazjaan3080 oh pity you. I just tried making it last night for christmas and my gnocchi is good. The problem is my sauce, i put parsely and lots of parmesan on it but when i tasted it, it tastes bland. Then i put some salt, pepper, and more parmesan on it. My sister and i ended up sitting on the toilet for hours because of too much cheese.

[@sanazjaan3080]

rachel roth hhahahaaa!!! At least your gnocchi survived! I tried to make a spaghetti Bolognese type of sauce. The sauce was perfect but the gnocchi went for a swim and drown 😬 😭😭😂

[@rachelroth5322]

@@sanazjaan3080 hahaha well in the end we are both miserable

[@rikich15]

by the way, you can also microwave potatoes and it'll work very well... Making gnocchi is such a nice activity to do with friends if you're planning a dinner party, or with kids for a family lunch. But overall, it's just super relaxing and extremely easy... I worked at a restaurant for two weeks last Summer (just because why not), and I almost immediately was trusted by the chef with making them on my own.

[@animaladam5]

I do not trust that chef.

[@vpm7ginnie784]

Very messy too Imagine getting kids involved you'll mashed potatoes everywhere

[@cutabove9046]

Didn't you forget the salt? salting the water alone won't cut it.

Clean the flour off your workbench. Ok, now sprinkle your workbench with flour.

[@jonpaulpepen9470]

It seems you either need to get rid of any dough that's still sticking or need fresh four, or both

[@ljd1031]

@@jonpaulpepen9470 both...

[@dgritzer]

It's because there's moist potato residue that gets on the work surface during the kneading step, and it hardens quickly exposed to air...if you don't clean it up, you may get hard bits in your gnocchi. Cleaning, then re-flouring avoids this.

[@quicodlp]

Total fail! 😂
