i think i missed my calling…

Apparently, I should have been a gnocchi  chef.  I have never made it before, and I have only eaten it a few times at Italian restaurants.  I have read a lot of recipes today, and they all offer consolation for first-timers who fail at it and encourage them to keep trying.  Especially if they go eggless.  WELL, I went eggless, and it turned out.  First time in a long time something new hasn’t flopped.

I threw together a quick tomato sauce and teamed it with the gnocchi.  I plan on cooking up some  basic veggies to go with and leaving it at that.  It takes a long time and a lot of effort to make this pasta/dumpling.  SO if someone makes it for you, know it was a gift of time and energy.

More eye candy below with the raw gnocchi.  Oh, and hopefully I will have some pics of my Central Park Hoodie to show eventually — I’m still working diligently on the hood!
