Ricotta gnocchi (potato-free) homemade, easy and soft, always perfect. Li have ever tasted? Very easy to do, They are prepared in 10 minutes and remain always soft. Unlike the POTATO GNOCCHI (Egg-free recipe), I personally love, but whose success depends to 90% by the quality of the potatoes, The ricotta gnocchi They always come out well. I use the sheep's ricotta, drier and tasty, but you can also use the Cow's milk ricotta (that just put it in a colander to lose some’ liquid for a few hours) and the goat. Look at it STEP BY STEP VIDEO RECIPE on a process for making ricotta gnocchi. So you can prepare tonight. Is, se vi va, subscribe to my canale You Tube to stay up to date on the video recipes.

These dumplings you can also freeze and consume within a couple of weeks, putting them in even frozen water. They are perfect with any kind of sauce, from the simplest ones such as butter and Sage o tomato (according perfect me, because the acidity of the tomato contrasts with the sweetness of the ricotta) to more complex sauces like meat sauce. And you can also prepare them to Sorrento, with tomato and mozzarella, and put them in the oven without fear that disfino.

This recipe is one of my joker in the kitchen: ricotta gnocchi everyones, and since it will prepare them with your hands you manage to surprise the guests with your extraordinary abilities (just do not raccontiate at all as they are simple to prepare). Try them too PUMPKIN GNOCCHI, really yummy and the FRESH PUMPKIN AND SEMOLINA PASTA? Have a good day!

Ingredients

500 grams of sheep's ricotta (or cow ricotta if you prefer)

250 grams of 00 flour

2 whole eggs

sale, to taste

80 grams of PDO and / or grated Parmigiano Reggiano DOP cheese

Procedure

Homemade ricotta gnocchi with tomato sauce

Prepare gnocchi with ricotta is easy. First look at the STEP BY STEP VIDEO RECIPE. Place the flour on the work surface, make a hole in the center and add the eggs. Beat the eggs with a fork, incorporating a little flour, so as to form a sort of batter. Add all the ricotta, salt and grated cheese.

Mix with your fingertips until the flour has not been fully absorbed. You do not need dough is smooth and homogeneous, but rather coarse, with pieces of ricotta still visible inside. This is because unless you work gnocchi, more will be softer.

Once the dough is formed, put it in a bowl, covered with plastic wrap and let rest in refrigerator for 30 minutes.

After resting, dust the work surface with a little flour, pick up a piece of dough and cut into cords (the thickness of your choice according to dumpling size that you want to get: Chicca, medium, grande). With a tarot or a knife to divide the cords in many segments, as you see in STEP BY STEP VIDEO RECIPE on proceedings.

At this point, you can leave the gnocchi as they are or, if you prefer, use the riga-dumplings or a fork to give it the characteristic striped look. If not used immediately ricotta gnocchi (They are so quick to make when I make them and bake them directly), store in refrigerator covered with clingfilm.

Boil the ricotta gnocchi in salted water. Since they will rise to the surface, calculated about 3-5 minutes of cooking depending on the size of the dumplings. Toss as favorite: good with butter and sage, sensational with the tomato sauce (my choice), you can also get them to Sorrento because they are always soft but not disintegrate even if retouched in a pan and put in oven. Bon appétit!

Note

You can freeze the ricotta gnocchi by putting them on a cardboard or plastic tray and then in the freezer for an hour. When they are frozen so hard, put them in a bag and freeze consumateli within 2-3 weeks. You do not need decongelarli before cooking, it is sufficient to cook in boiling water for a few minutes longer than the time indicated for the fresh ricotta gnocchi

Way There,
do you think it's possible to make these dumplings with flour 0 instead of 00?
Changing flour type, I should change the doses of the other ingredients? How so, possibly?
A thousand thanks.

Hi Francesca! Thanks for the compliments. It would be better to make the dumplings on time, it takes 10-15 minutes in all, and the taste and texture are incomparable. Let me know, ada
