Gnocchi with Blue Cheese Sauce step by step
- Make mashed potatoes with milk or water..
- Mix bread flour and salt. Add it to the mashed potatoes little by little..
- Knead the gnocchi mixture well. *Weight of bread flour = 1 / 3 of mashed potato mix + liquids.
- Add some extra bread flour if the gnocchi mixture is too soft..
- Scoop a small amount of the gnocchi mixture and rolling it on your hand to make an oval shape. Press and make lines to both front & back side with using the back of a fork. *You can skip making lines, but those lines help keep the sauce on the gnocchi..
- Boil gnocchi with plenty of water..
- It's done boiling when they start to float on the surface. Drain the water..
- Just like gorgonzola picante or dolce, every blue cheese has a different strong taste. Find your favorite and use it. My big recommendation is "Bergader Edelpilz" from Germany. This cheese makes a perfect sauce!.
- Pour heavy cream into the pan, simmer it gently with low heat, do not boil. Then put in the whole blue cheese, shave & melt it with a spatula. Mix and simmer it well..
- Add gnocchi to it and mix gently..
- Place gnocchi on the plate and spinkle with ground black pepper or pour some acacia honey on it. If you want to make it richer, try truffle honey!.
- If you're not interested in cheese, mix with tomato sauce. It also is good!.
- Put some dill on top for a nice presentation. Next day the taste becomes even richer. Enjoy the leftovers!.
