#63 Gnocchi di Susine (Trentino–Alto Adige)
I learned about these dumplings from someone who wrote to me saying, “In our valley, we fill gnocchi with plums.” I had never seen anything like it, but once I tried them they made sense. Soft potato dough, small plums filled with sugar and cinnamon, then boiled and rolled in butter-toasted breadcrumbs. The first bite explained why they lasted this long: warm fruit, light dough and toasted crumbs all working together. Just the kind of mountain comfort that comes from using what you have and doing it well.
Full story with recipe, method, and tips coming soon on Substack (link in bio).

Da quel che so gli gnocchi di susine sono triestini🧐
They make the same dish in Gorizia too! Delicious!
sicuro non siano più friulani? Non lo so eh, alzo le mani 😂
Esatto! La zia Cia li faceva la domenica di festa a Aquileia (UD) ed erano fantastici…❤
brother fai gli gnoc de la cua, dalla valle camonica!
chisà a metterci una oliva a scolana invece di una prugna, o farlo tipo matrioska con un uovo alla scotch
Lol, my grandma used to make this, yet she was Pole that ran from war to France😅
Damn this was probably my favorite dish as a child
This is the same as Zwetschgenknödel in Austria!
Una cosa simile che fanno sempre in Alto Adige sono i canederli all'albicocca, in particolare a Lana, in Val Venosta, dove le coltivano, e sono meravigliosamente buoni
Pyzy
Romanians have the same 🙂
Classicone della cucina Goriziana e Giuliana.
Si mangiano anche in Ungheria.
Classico del Goriziano ❤❤❤
It derives from Czech ovocne knedlik, as many other Viennese "flour desserts" or the typical "böhmische Mehlspeisen"
Wow, sweet boiled dumplings. They look delicious. Your expression reminds me of Christmas morning.
Hai un pochino esagerato con la pasta di patate! 😅 di solito se ne mette meno, volendo si possono fare anche con delle albicocche poco mature. Idealmente andrebbero accompgante con una crema alla vaniglia.
Grazie per aver portato questo piatto della mia provincia ❤
My american brain wants it deep fried
We eat that all across Poland – we call it "knedle" ❤
Come fa un italiano a non trovare qualcosa di buono? Quanti piatti abbiamo? 😅😋😋😋😋
This is a very common dish in Hungary called "Szilvásgombóc". It's a children's favourite. The only difference is that we also add cinnamon to the sugar inside.
Gombotzi cu prune
Even better with Topfen!
I mean I've had rice balls with plums for the filling so I guess it isn't that weird.
Fagli vedere anche la torta di ceci a sto punto
Questo e un piatto UNGHERESE ladro
If this is is Italian then Pizza is from Egypt,it is a dish from Hungary for your good information… remember that that part of Italy once was part of the Austria-Hungarian empire not Italy😂😂😂😂😂 Ignorant
Tipo un mochi italiano!
Questi li facciamo anche in Ungheria 🙃
