Tips…

  • To give the gnocchi a nice shape, make a small ball of dough with your hands. Roll it around the base of a fork, pressing it lightly so that it takes on a more oval shape. When you get to the pointed part, poke the dough into it a little. This way, the sauce will go into the incision you have made.
