Nothing beats serving your own homemade basil pesto with some freshly made potato gnocchi. These pillowy gnocchi are a proper comfort food and they pair perfectly with the light basil pesto. The process of making this whole dish is easy, fun and therapeutic to do and a winner every single time. You have to give it a try.
Top tips:
👉 Use old potatoes as they will have less water which is better for the dough (and a great way to use leftover potatoes!)
👉 Let the potatoes steam dry for 5 minutes after boiling. This is a crucial step before making gnocchi because it removes excess moisture.
👉 Stop kneading the dough as soon as it comes together – otherwise it will get too sticky and you’ll end up adding too much flour
👉 Don’t put too much pressure on the dough when rolling out the shapes – just lightly press and roll.

Everybody always talks about extra virgin olive oil, what about minimal virgin olive oil? Is that a thing?
🤤🤤🤤
The shape with the dent in the middle are called kopytka in Polish… translated to little horses' hooves. We boil them, then fry them in onions and butter. The outside is crisp and browned, and inside soft and fluffy. Served with sour cream.
I'm going to try this recipe!
iam, iam…
I love gnocchi and must try it with pesto sometime. I've only had it with a tomato sauce. The last restaurant I went to for lunch served such a large portion that I took the leftovers home. I discovered that it's really good eaten cold, too – just like having pasta salad instead of a hot pasta dish for a change.
You explain everything so well …no fuss….Thank you
I am Indian I make gnocchi…I dislike potato but gnocchi I love it …
Fantastic, i know it is not athentic but a bit of baby broccoli?
Is there a way to correctly mash the potatoes without the specific tool?
It looks like eating Italian food makes men insanely handsome! ❤

It looks awesome. But will the olive oil not get bitter when mixing it?
Oh yes, I remember my brother made this. It was really good.
Il succo di limone nel pesto?
Piace a questo ragazzo inglese la tua maniera di parlare la lingua inglese!

Piggnoli are better toasted before, the taste of raw piggnoli is not nice, specially if they are not fresh

There is an incredible beauty to Italian cooking. I’m fortunate to be married to a woman who inherited several organizers of recipes from her Sicilian grandmother. I will be forever grateful to them both for exposing them to what good family food tastes like since my own family wasn’t nearly as generous with family recipes. Salute my friend!
(If you dont want to reas it then im not forceing )God created us in His image to know and glorify Him (Genesis 1:27). But we have all sinned (Romans 3:23), separating ourselves from God, and the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Yet God, in His great love, sent His Son Jesus Christ to live a sinless life, die on the cross for our sins, and rise again from the dead (Romans 4:25, 2 Corinthians 5:21). Everyone who trusts Jesus as Savior and Lord will be forgiven, reconciled to God, and receive the free gift of eternal life. (John 3:16, Mark 1:15, Ephesians 2:8-10)
Spread the gospel (Mark 16:15). We have to remember to repnd of our sins (kopy and past it so that many may se it )
Hey, maybe you were once treated badly by someone who believes, but that doesn't mean that Jesus is like that, he loves us and treats us all the same, and sometimes someone can really correct you without judging, he just tells you what you're doing wrong, but with love, because that's what Jesus commanded, then the problem isn't with them.

Matthew 11:28 are the words of Jesus: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
"Zaufaj Panu z całego serca swego i nie polegaj na swoim rozumie. We wszystkich swoich drogach zwracaj się do Niego, a On prostować będzie twoje ścieżki"

Jezus loves you he said he has a plan for you he got you is ALWAYS there for you he is not done with you and he said that you are that we all are created in his perfekt image
Cue one-centimetre sausage jokes..lol bravissimo cuoco!
That looks delicious.
Beautiful!! I also like to toast the outside of the gnocchi in a pan for a little extra texture.
Where I can see the quantities of the ingredients? Thank you for this video
