I can't be wasting my time here. Somebody here knows how to cook.

>>7401289
It's pasta. What the fuck do you want? Sauce recipes? The internet is fucking littered with them.

>>7401299
It's not pasta you dingo.

>>7401310
Relax, they can also be made with flour.

>>7401310
That's why I want to know how you guys would treat it. Should I fry them, boil them, bake them?

How would you do it?

>>7401316
Personally, I usually boil them
There, you got something you couldn't get through google: common-sense advice from a total stranger, in text form. Oh wait....

>Relax, they can also be made with flour.
They contain minimal amounts of flour. They're not pasta though, and all recipes are kind of a potato recipe, and nothing like pasta, except they sponge up the sauce.

They are boiled to cook through the flour content. Then you may tip them out into a skillet with the sauce or some butter, just to remove some more of the moisture. Think of them like ravioli.

>>7401326
What the hell are you on about? Some varieties of gnocchi contain no potatoes at all.

>>7401328
We don't talk about degenerate gnocchi round these parts.

Make from baked potatoes, find recipe. Cook in hard boil hard until they float. Steam off for 30 seconds, fry in butter, serve with browned butter and parmesan, fried sage leaves. Or dollops of pesto and macaroons, lemon zest. Or a million other options.

Actually disregard the hard boil. They will be more succulent in a slow simmer. Maximize egg yolk count, minimize flour, depending on recipe. Frying them in butter is the secret. If course you can just sauce them after cooking, but who wouldn't rather fry them in butter?

This is the first tine I'm on this board and someone said Succulent

>>7401368

This is the first time I posted here. Usually I just gloat at the total culinary ignorance on display here, between faps on other boards.

Thanks! I fried a handful in beef fat, and slow simmered the rest in a saucepan with browned ground beef. It was really delightful. I appreciated getting this chance to learn. Thank you.

In a cream soup with maybe some type of fish, lobster/cod would be nice. Tried something of the sort in Italy.
