Pasta comes in many shapes and forms, but there‘s nothing quite as soft as gnocchi. And the star of this pasta variety isn’t flour and eggs, but potatoes! That’s where it gets its softness from.
A bit of trivia to impress your guests when serving the dish:
The word ‚gnocchi‘ comes from the Italian word ’nocchio,‘ which means ‚knot.‘ The smallest version of gnocchi is called ‚gnocchetti.‘ Some people consider gnocchi to be a type of dumpling, while others consider it to be a type of pasta. Gnocchi can also be made with semolina or saffron. Whether or not gnocchi is considered a type of pasta is a matter of debate, but we’ll leave that up to you to decide.
