How to prepare the gnocchi with pumpkin and gorgonzola cream in the house

Gnocchi with pumpkin cream with melted gorgonzola. Today the recipe for a gnocchi -based autumn first course and the autumn vegetable par excellence, the pumpkin, accompanied to a creamy fondue of Gorgonzola Dolce.

I love gnocchi because they are soft, greedy, versatile. I like them anyway, as long as they are seasoned with a rich creamy sauce. These are made with pumpkin Red, a gorgonzola fondue that revives the whole and a crispy bread crumble, hazelnuts and Sage.

You can use the potato gnocchi that you find ready in the refrigerated counter of the supermarkets, But if you want to make them at home try my recipe to make the house EGGLESS POTATO DUMPLINGS. It also found the RECIPE VIDEO Step Tutorial Step on my YouTube channel. If you prefer, you can also prepare them directly Homemade pumpkin gnocchi.

As you know, of dumplings there are so many, not only potatoes (with or without eggs). Don't forget to try too REGROUND SEMOLA DUMPLINGS, those OF RICOTTA, those of water and flour and those of SEMOLINA AND PUMPKIN. And now you wish good day.

Note

Combination: these gnocchi definitely deserve a sparkling wine. We chose a Franciacorta DOCG Brut Satèn (100% Chardonnay) of the cellars The Mosnel. A wine with intense flavour profile, with very fine perlage and pleasant, It manages to balance the sweetness of the pumpkin and the slightly spicy gorgonzola.

Hi dear, I am confused, are the gnocchi made of pumpkin or potato? I referred to your potato gnocchi recipe. Is the pumpkin just a complementary preparation? Thank you

Thank you, Rosy

Hi Raj, of course you can use this. Just take care to do it enough liquid because the pasta is rich in gluten and so then will tend to thicken ... Let me know. Ada

Is’ coming good, in fact it has thickened luckily I had the fresh cream on hand, It was enough little but it helped.
I chose the noodle size, for your convenience, but I never know how long it should Cook, Luckily I had guests practical fresh pasta beneventans who helped me and have enjoyed much the result.

Thank You Rosy! It is a sauce that tends to thicken, like all sauces with cheese. As for cooking times, I just today I made egg pasta, I pulled very thin (number 8 of the machine) I blanched for one minute and then sautéed for another minute. It all depends on the size and especially the thickness. I'm glad you liked it. Ada

I made them today at lunch. Yummy! Alternatively to that sweet, I'd use the traditional blue cheese, for a stronger taste in contrast to pumpkin cake.

Thank you! Also I love that spicy and I use it a lot… Let's say it's more detail: for this I recommend the sweet, suitable for most people. I'll confess that I personally always put the spicy or even roquefort…
