Homemade Gnocchi

Cultural Context

Gnocchi, originating from Italy, are small dumplings traditionally made from potatoes and flour. They are a staple in Italian cuisine, often served with various sauces or simply with butter and sage. Homemade gnocchi are celebrated for their light, fluffy texture, which contrasts with the denser, store-bought varieties. In modern cooking, they have gained popularity worldwide, with many variations incorporating different ingredients like spinach or ricotta.
