Potato Gnocchi

Soft, pillowy, cheesy and creamy. Doesn't that sound amazing? Well, it is. Homemade pasta can be scary, but gnocchi is easy. If you can make mashed potatoes, you can make gnocchi. I absolutely, totally promise. And, you can't mess up the cooking or doneness since it floats when finished! If you want to go the extra mile, you can sear them in some butter to get a nice golden crust on each bite, too.

Ingredients:
2 lb russet potatoes (4 medium)
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 large egg (beaten)
3 tbsp butter
1/2 cup parmesan (grated)
Salt

1. Peel potatoes and add to bowl of cold water immediately after peeling. Try to give potatoes minimal exposure to air.
2. Boil in large pot for about 25 minutes or until fork tender.
3. Drain and cover with kitchen towel to steam for 5 minutes.
4. Smash through potato ricer into bowl or cutting board.
5. Add egg, lightly mix, then add flour. Truthfully, all at once is okay.
6. Mix very gently. Don't mash or squeeze. Keep it light and fluffy.
7. Roll gnocchi with just enough flour that it doesn't stick. Cut with a knife or bench scraper.
8. Boil water in a large pot or sauté pan with a generous handful of salt.
9. When water comes to a boil, add gnocchi and cook until it floats.
10. Optionally, sear in some butter until golden brown.
11. Add a bit of parmesan, and any other desired seasonings or additions. Enjoy!

This was the FIRST ever video I filmed with Manny :)

[toaster]

Nick: tosses a knife around
Also nick: cuts himself with a potato peeler

[joelkosinski]

Imagine you walk into your kitchen, and you see a man spanking himself with a gnocchi board

[lucaskozuch]

This man's refrigerator probably looks like a 5 star restaurants dream

[angelorodriguez]

“You’ve probably never had crispy truffle.” NICK I HAVENT EVEN HAD A REGULAR TRUFFLE

[Kafend]

I still remember the Master Chef episode where Nick straight up asked Gordon for tips on making gnocchi after he told him he'd never made it before ever.

[kiwi-idfe]

“how to destroy ur cutting board” with nick digiovanni

[ThisOffendsMeTV]

I’m just here to casually watch your channel continue to blow up while looking at food I’m not cool enough to make

[drdough]

Nick is simultaneously speaking sign language while also not speaking sign language

[diptikarmarkar]

When Nick starts recording
His Cutting Board : Ah shit . Here we go again.

[chethanveena]

"U may have not had crispy truffles before "

Me who has never had truffles: hommie i don't think u understand.

[ryan]

"you've probably never had crispy truffle before."

Me: just sitting here eating Kraft Dinner for the 3rd day in a row.

[stressedmochii]

He closed his eyes and thought about spanking himself. This man never ceases to astound me.

[Aaron-yzlt]

Who all came straight to the comment section after he spanked himself

[andrewcarroll]

I love that I’m able to learn new things in less than 10 minutes thanks to people like nick I can become a better chef than I ever could imagine

[generalkenobi]

I felt that when he slapped his butt with that board.

[jaydenmallow]

I am 11 years old right now, I’ll be 12 in a week 🥳. When I watch your videos it inspires me to make delicious food when I’m an adult and potentially even make a career. Love your videos, and the food looks amazing!👍😁

[amandadavenport]

I really like and appreciate how well he explains every little step or detail

[rainiersierra]

I can still remember the first time you made Gnocchi on Masterchef. It wasn't a good start but look at the improvements that you have today. God bless you!
