Gnocchi Gorgonzola Recipes

BAKED GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the butter and allow to melt. Add the shallot and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until the shallot is fragrant and beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook for another minute. Slowly whisk in the milk for a smooth sauce. Add the bay leaf and simmer for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. Whisk in the Gorgonzola until smooth. Add the gnocchi and stir to coat. Pour the mixture into an 8-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with the breadcrumb topping and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 25 minutes. Allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.

POTATO GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA

Steps:

• Make the gnocchi:.
• Peel potatoes.
• Boil the potatoes for about 20 minutes in salted water until tender.
• Pass potatoes through the fine disk of a potato ricer, and cool.
• Pour the potato onto the counter, and begin to mix in the flour.
• Add a pinch of salt and gather into a dough.
• Cut the dough into 4 pieces, and roll into finger-thick logs.
• Cut each log into 1" pieces, and press each over the reversed tines of a fork (the resulting ridges allow the gnocchi to grab onto the sauce later).
• Now dust a tray with flour and line the gnocchi in a single layer on top of it.
• Set aside, and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Once boiling, drop in the gnocchi, and remove them with a slotted spoon when they rise to the surface (this means they are ready).
• Meanwhile, crumble the Gorgonzola into chunks, and melt in a pan over medium-low heat with the butter and cream.
• When ready, combine the gnocchi and the sauce, sprinkle with the Parmigiano, and serve.

GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the gnocchi.
• Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in an 8-quart pot over high heat. (If you plan to cook the gnocchi as soon as they are formed, put the water on to boil while the riced potatoes are cooling. If you are cooking previously frozen gnocchi, make sure the water is boiling before you remove the gnocchi from the freezer.)
• Bring the stock, cream, and butter to a boil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season lightly with salt and pepper and boil until the sauce is lightly reduced, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the Gorgonzola until dissolved.
• Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water a few at a time, stirring gently and continuously with a wooden spoon. Cook just until they rise to the surface and roll over, 2 to 3 minutes. If the skillet is large enough to accommodate the sauce and gnocchi, gently scoop the gnocchi out of the boiling water with a large wire skimmer and add them directly to the sauce in the skillet. If not, drain the gnocchi gently, return them to the pot, and pour in the sauce. Bring the sauce and gnocchi to a boil, stirring gently to coat the gnocchi with sauce. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano. Check the seasoning, adding salt if necessary. Serve immediately in warm bowls.
