Serve with <strong><a href="https://food52.com/recipes/39238-my-ragu">my ragu</a></strong>. Recipe adapted slightly from <strong><a href="">Lidia’s Italian-American Kitchen</a></strong> (Knopf, 2001). <br /> <br />6 Tips for Gnocchi Making: <br />1. Baking the potatoes instead of boiling them makes for drier potatoes. <br />2. The less flour you use the lighter the gnocchi, but also the more potato tasting. <br />3. Rice the potatoes as soon as they leave the oven--rubber gloves prevent burning yourself. <br />4. Immediately spread the riced potatoes out in a thin layer so the steam escapes. <br />5. Once you form gnocchi, they must be cooked or frozen right away or they turn to mush. <br />6. To freeze gnocchi, place them on a sheet pan without touching. Once completely frozen, transfer them into a sealable plastic bag.
