Gnocchi Part III… & Egg Noodles & Spaetzle

Gnocchi Part II
For gnocchi part II – a look at the end result
Have to admit my gnocchi didn’t turn out as ‘fluffy pillows of goodness’ (as I like to refer to really rockin’ gnocchi as). But – topped with some nummy balsamic brown butter sage sauce they were substantial yet delicious. Heck – putting brown butter anything ON anything makes it taste awesome. I’m wondering if they held their shape – and their firmness – due to the lack of potato. Previous butternut squash gnocchi I’ve made has included some aspect of potatoes. These – just flour to bring it to a dough consistency. I have no problem continuing on my quest to make the perfect gnocchi.
