Re: Homemade Gnocchi or Gnocchi di Patate

I'm sure it was hazelnuts as everything in that area is hazelnut. I think it probably had more cream than butter. So probably uses olive oil as a base. Herbs? I don't know. What herbs do you think would be good with hazelnuts and cream? They really don't use a lot of herbs in their cooking in Emilia Romagna that I can remember, which was always surprising to us. Don't even use garlic.

I hope you do try with the gf flour mix. And let me know!

Marsha, I was actually going to try making gnocchi with Bob's gluten free flour mix (just to see how it turns out). I have too many celiac friends who love gnocchi but can't eat it. Will let you know how it goes... Hmm... a nut sauce, tell me more! Hazelnuts? Butter? Herbs? I may have to try.... :)

Gnocchi is one my favorite foods of all time. Except now I have to figure out how to make it gluten free. It will be worth the effort! But maybe the only effort will be substituting a different flour in your recipe. Definitely a place to start! I love the brown butter and sage sauce but one of the most memorable ones I had was in Bologna, Italy -- it was with a nut sauce. I still dream of it!

One of the techniques I've learned with the under-appreciated vegetable involves trimming the woody part, then scoring the base with a cross. Next, briefly cook in boiling water (2 or 3 minutes). Finish in a pan of browned butter with freshly grated nutmeg. The goodness of the vegetable remains without masking.

Awesome! I've only had frozen zucchini cakes...and they obviously don't compare to homemade. Thanks for the recipe!

It's so true... I don't get why brussels sprouts have such a bad name! Kind of like lima beans; they never did anything to hurt anyone :)

You're welcome, Marilyn! Yes, I hear it was called "poor man's spaghetti" and my grandma would make something similar. She'd use a lot more egg which is delicious but I wanted to try something different. :)

You gotta love that Sriracha sauce! With the apricot glaze, soy, vinegar and GARLIC!... wow.

Check out our Sriracha-Garlic wings, they are similar in that they are baked before frying, with tons of garlic.

Wow, I have recently fallen in love with making pizza, and eating it too, and these pies look fantastic. This is definitely my kind of place. I'm going to call my friends in Seattle and tell them to go now. Beautiful pictures, I can't wait to eat there myself.

Deseree: Love your site and loved Seattle. Dreaming of that good coffee, moderate weather (it rained only 2 of 5 days) and the great local red wine.

Deseree — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 11:50:55 -0000

Thank you for mentioning my blog! That was very sweet of you. I just love Fall too! September through December is actually my favorite time of year. I love the food, family and holidays. Not to mention the beautiful changing leaves, the crackling of a fire in the fire place and the overwhelming need to curl up in a blanket and read a good book. I am so excited that Fall is finally here!
Seattle it is beautiful at this time of year but I bet New England is beautiful this time of year too.
By the way, how was your trip to Seattle?

Don't mention it, Ele. Your sites are so fun and though we've never met, feel a kindred-ship in our writing. It's all very personal and that's what makes it fun and inspiring!
