Potato Gnocchi with Semolina Flour
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Cost: Economical
  • Preparation time: 20 Minutes
  • Portions: 4
  • Cooking methods: Stove
  • Cuisine: Italian
  • Seasonality: All Seasons

Ingredients

  • 21 oz potatoes
  • 2 cups re-milled durum wheat semolina
  • salt

Steps

  • Boil the potatoes in plenty of boiling water until they are soft.

    Mash them with a potato masher or a vegetable mill and collect the puree in a bowl.

    Salt to taste and start adding the re-milled durum wheat semolina.

    Initially mix with a fork, then knead by hand, increasingly energetically until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous dough.

    Let it rest for a few minutes at room temperature, covered with the bowl.

    Divide the potato gnocchi dough with semolina flour into several pieces, stretch them under the palms of your hands to first form sausages, then cylinders, not too thick and long.

    Finally, cut the gnocchi with a sharp knife. You can then decide whether to leave the gnocchi smooth, as I did, or stripe them with a fork or gnocchi board.

STORAGE

Store the potato gnocchi on a lightly floured tray in a cool, dry place for an hour before cooking them.

Otherwise, store them in the fridge for up to two days, or freeze them first well-spaced and then collected in a freezer bag for food.
