"Mastering Roman-Style Gnocchi: A Beginner's Guide"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by The Washington Post
Making traditional potato gnocchi can be challenging, but Roman-style gnocchi, known as gnocchi alla Romana, offers a simpler and heartier alternative. This dish, made with semolina flour, milk, egg, butter, and cheese, is baked rather than boiled, resulting in a creamy and soft texture. While traditionally served plain, variations with added ingredients like sautéed mushrooms or prosciutto are also popular. With just six ingredients, including salt, gnocchi alla Romana is considered almost foolproof to prepare.
