Gnocchi di ricotta

Gnocchi di ricotta is a traditional gnocchi variety that’s especially popular in Tuscany. The gnocchi are made with a combination of ricotta, butter, grated cheese, eggs, flour, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. The ingredients are mixed and formed into gnocchi, which are then rolled in flour and poached in boiling water. When they rise to the top, they’re taken out and served with butter and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano. If there’s enough time, it’s recommended to leave the mixture in the fridge overnight before shaping it into small gnocchi.
