Gnocchi | Basics with Babish

This week on Basics, I'm conquering one of my all-time greatest fears and making gnocchi.

Blue Wednesday - Sweet Berry Wine

Fun fact: the first time I made gnocchi, they fell apart in the water and I didn’t try to make them again until last week, 10 years later.

is anyone else super jealous of his huge cutting board of a kitchen counter

In Italian slang “gnocca” means umm... female parts and since this is ep.69 I don’t think this is unintentional...

[verynotcomfy]

for 7 million, Babish should just do a compilation of him going "season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper"

"This is no job for Tiny Whisk"


Well, not with that attitude it isn't

Does anyone else just binge watch all his episodes when life is punching you in the gut with brass knuckles?

Babish at 0:45 : "This is a great use for leftover potatoes[...]"
Me, of Irish blood: "For what now?"

fun fact : babish seasons his kosher salt with kosher salt before using it

The last time he used his ricer was July of 2019, KFC from stranger things was the video. The ricer may be in the same place as his food safe bucket, which has also not appeared in any video since then.

Thank you for the recipe our son made it for us for Father’s Day. They were fluffy and yummy with a great Bolognese sauce I made. Our son turned us onto your channel keep on doing what you are doing! You rock!

"Gnocchi" to me means "delicious lil potato dumpling" but also "that one time I tried making my own and accidentally almost burned my house down." Yay...

[williamramirez]

Idk about anyone else, but I'd love to see him make the food from American Psycho.

“This is no job for tiny whisk.”

This honestly looks like the first thing you've made that I might be able to pull off in my own basic kitchen. Potatoes, flour, eggs for the gnocchi then some sauce. awesome :)

Tip: If you can't toss the pan you can optionally just stir it like a sane person.

Okay so Babish you are one of my biggest inspirations to pursue the culinary arts as a career. Proof of that is now, I'm currently panicking over poor grades in class and potentially losing my job as a cook. Just hearing the Basics theme song and remembering when I made this recipe reminded me of why I'm even doing this.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you man.

i like how he refers to them as gnocchs, as if they're his little children
