Homemade Ricotta Gnocchi
why you'll love this!
This ricotta gnocchi is so easy to make and can be made with homemade ricotta cheese, too!
what you need:
Ricotta Cheese Egg Yolks Parmigiano Cheese Kosher Salt All-Purpose Flour
Combine
Combine ricotta cheese, egg yolks, and parmigiano cheese in a large bowl. Make sure to drain away the excess liquid from the ricotta cheese first.
1
Mix
Use a wooden spoon to mix the dough together. Do not over mix or the gnocchi will come out tough. The dough should be sticky, yet hold together.
2
Split Dough
Dust your workspace with flour. Then, transfer the dough to your countertop and cut it into quarters using a knife or bench scraper.
3
Roll & Cut
Use your hands to roll each quarter of dough into a log until it reaches 3/4-inch wide. Cut each log into square pieces to create your gnocchi.
4
Toss
Dust gnocchi pieces with flour and then toss so that they don't stick together.
5
Boil
Transfer ricotta gnocchi into boiling water and let cook for 1 to 1.5 minutes or until they float to the top. This means they are fully cooked.
6
Mix with Sauce
Transfer the cooked gnocchi right into whatever sauce you are serving it with. Check out our sweet pea butter sauce. It's so delicious!
