Tante Grazie!

mooney, mark non vè preocupat n'è succes nient.
(don't worry,nothing is happenend)

Weren't you asked not to do this? PLEASE don't.

SC tries to be more flexible, we write both in Italian and English, as you wanted, so what is wrong?

There is nothing wrong with an occasional Italian word or phrase but you were asked to cut out the Italian replies. You were asked at least twice. This is not open to debate. Capische?

(Guagliò, nu rispndet in italian,solo singole parole o frasi,altrimenti SC c'è tagl è pall!)
Boys no replies in Italian, only single words or phrases, or SC will cut our balls!

Cut the crap and get back on the topic (gnocchi, if you've forgotten)...

I love gnocchi, my grandmother used to make the best i've ever tasted. My wife's potato gnocchi is also pretty good but not as good as my grandmothers which i have never had the courage to tell her. She does make a killer sauce though.

I tried to make it myself once after watching Lidia on PBS make it. Came out really bad.

Now i'm hungry!

My mom used to make homemade gnocchi. with the doe, roller and flower on the table on a saturday with the big stainless steal pot of gravy on with meatballs,sausage,spare ribs and brajole with the egg in it. Always on a saturday we would have a meatball sandwhich. I miss those days GNOCCHI is a great dish

gnocchi is like my kryptonite dish. no matter how many times i make it or what different recipe i use it always comes out too glutenous. guess you need soft hands and a gentle touch for it, neither of which i have too close to baking with the exact measurements for my liking, although a sure do love to eat it!

Too juch work anyway, FF. In this day and age most specialty stores offer a decent gnocchi either flash frozen of kryovacked. But it's easy for me to say because I can just run over to a local Italian deli here in the Bronx and buy them as I need them. When made properly gnocchi are as light as a feather. But with even a slight deviation they can go down like lead.

yeah they are. i'm not one to complain about dishes usually but with them it gets a little crazy, flour all over the place, and under my nails, i hate that.
