My grandmother, from the Lake district, has always made hers with mashed potato flakes. I keep pestering my mom to try them from real potato and she shrugs and says leave me alone.

if you take them out right when they float to the top, and they are slimy or soft-- add more flour.
Usually they get slimy from over cooking!

Did I miss what to do if your gnocchi are 'slimy'? Do you add more potato flakes or flour? You mention this issue twice, but I don't see the fix for it. Thanks!

I'm going to have to see if I can get these flakes in the UK -- otherwise I've a shopping list for a trip to Italy in the near future! Thanks to Rosaria, I'm a new visitor to your blog and it's wonderful!

Gorgonzola and pesto sounds amazing for a sauce! I would be interested in any tips you have on making pizza after your class. I find pizza dough just as difficult as gnocchi some days. Sometimes it just takes a tip or two to master a technique.

I even like your gadget you use to make your gnocchi. I am sure Otalians would be familiar with it but not us "wannabe's"
