Preheat the oven to 400° F.
Wash 1 kilogram of starchy potatoes and pierce them a few times with a fork.
Place the potatoes on a cookie sheet and bake for about an hour or until soft when pierced with a knife.
Allow the potatoes to cool just enough to handle, then peel and discard the skin.
Put the potatoes through a ricer or grate them on the largest holes of a grater.
Let the potatoes cool completely.
Lightly whisk 2 eggs with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon white pepper.
Make a well in the middle of the potatoes and pour in the egg mixture.
Sprinkle the potatoes with 1 cup flour and gently pull the potatoes, egg, and flour together with your hands to form a dough, adding more flour as needed to avoid stickiness.
Cut off a small portion of the dough and roll it into a tube-like shape.
Using a knife or pastry cutter, cut the tube into small bite-sized pieces.
Roll each piece along the back of a floured fork to create indentations.
Place the gnocchi on a baking tray as you make them.
If not cooking immediately, freeze the gnocchi on the tray, then transfer to a bag for storage.
To cook, heat a large pot of water to a gentle boil and drop in a few gnocchi at a time, stirring gently to prevent sticking.
When the gnocchi float to the top, give them another second, then scoop them out and taste one to ensure it's cooked.
When mixing with sauce, be gentle to avoid breaking the gnocchi.
