Gnocchi

anyone else enjoy gnocchi?
The store near my house now carries several types in vacuum sealed packages. I picked up some whole wheat gnocchi last night with some Vodka Cream Sauce
Hard to find on menus, had several types on my last trip to Little Italy in NYC. I prefer a Vodka Cream Sauce over traditional red.

Ricotta gnocchi are light and awesome. Potato flour gnocchi are reminiscent of wallpaper paste. I've had a few that are good, in small portions, but I've never understood how someone can pack away a huge plate of those things.

My wife's been making these lately and they've blown me away with how good they are.
I always suspected it was exceedingly difficult to get them right, but she found a seemingly easy recipe in Cooks Illustrated.

We ate the shite out of it in Taoromina a few years ago. Delicate, velvety, perfectly sauced---exquisite. A whole different experience than packaged.

i enjoy it, if prepared properly. some of that prepackaged stuff at the grocery store is like chewing on bubble gum.

I like it, I usually see it at Whole Foods.

Oh absolutely.
I like even sans vodka, pastas with alfredo and red sauce combined.
* I've never bought pre-packaged gnocchi, but I have had it at a few restaurants and really enjoyed it.

Definitely not true in NOLA...I think its restaurant law that every uptown bistro must have a version of it.

They use Gnocchi in some dishes at Enoteca Marcello's here in BR.

We had some with our special recently.
Twin lamb t-bones glazed with a rosemary and orange chutney served with a smoked bacon and gorganzola gnocchi.
Good shite.

I pan fry mine in a T of butter and a T of olive oil til they're golden brown and crispy, then I put whatever sauce or toppings I want on them. SOOO GOOOD!

There is a brand new restaurant "Le Creole" located on Highland Rd. near the interstate that makes a "Handmade Potato Gnocchi with mushroom and tasso cream" and it's incredible!!! Actually, everything on the menu is great....but thought I'd let you know they have a Gnocchi in case you might want to try it out

Had some just last night (with bacon, peas, and garlic cream sauce) at "Beausoleil" - brand new restaurant on Jefferson Hwy where the Silver Spoon was. Excellent (as was the rabbit in mustard sauce with mustard greens).

There's a restaurant in my city that has a side dish called Gnocchi au Parmesan that's prepared like that and it's awesome.
