GNOCCHI WITH CREAMY GORGONZOLA SAUCE



Gnocchi with Creamy Gorgonzola Sauce image

Provided by Laura Giannatempo

Categories     Main Course

Yield Yields 2 scant cups sauce.

Number Of Ingredients 6

Kosher salt
1-1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 lb. Gorgonzola dolce (soft Gorgonzola), rind removed and cheese cut into 1-inch dice, at room temperature
1-1/2 tsp. all-purpose flour
1 recipe Potato Gnocchi
1/3 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over high heat.
  • Heat the heavy cream in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until small bubbles begin to form in the middle and on the sides, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the Gorgonzola and cook, stirring, until it's completely melted, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the flour. Cook, stirring, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes more. Turn off the heat and cover to keep warm.
  • To get the gnocchi into the boiling water, fold the parchment ends to form a chute and gently shake the gnocchi out, taking care not to clump them together as you drop them in. Give one gentle stir, wait until the gnocchi all float to the surface of the water, and then cook them for 1 minute. Carefully drain the gnocchi in a colander. Transfer them to the sauce and gently toss to coat. Serve immediately, topped with the parsley, if using.

Gnocchi with Cream of Acorn Squash and Borgonzola Cheese image

This creamy gnocchi make a great first course or "primo piatto". Sweet roasted acorn squash are pureed with a bit of butter and sage and tossed with the hot gnocchi and dotted with fresh Borgonzola cheese. The pungent cheese gets all melty and nicely offsets the sweetness of the squash.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound russet potatoes
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
6 ounces Parmesan, finely grated, divided
1 cup all-purpose flour plus more
1 teaspoon kosher salt plus more
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 cup heavy cream
1 sprig rosemary
1 1/4"-thick slice fresh ginger
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature, divided
3 tablespoons fine dried breadcrumbs
4 ounces Gorgonzola dolce or other mild blue cheese
Special Equipment
A 1 1/2-quart baking dish or gratin dish; a ricer

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a large pot. Add water to cover by 1"; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until tender, 25-30 minutes. Drain; set aside and let cool slightly. Peel potatoes. Pass through ricer or a food mill or sieve, into a large bowl. Whisk egg and egg yolk in a small bowl to blend. Add egg mixture, 1/3 cup Parmesan, 1 cup flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and nutmeg to potatoes. Using your hands, gently mix to form a soft but not sticky dough. Transfer dough to a floured surface. Gather into a ball, then divide into 4 pieces.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; dust with flour. Working with 1 piece at a time (keep other pieces covered with a damp kitchen towel), roll dough into a 24"-long rope. Cut crosswise into 1" pieces. Working with 1 piece at a time, press lightly on gnocchi with the back of the tines of a fork and gently roll gnocchi to create ridges on 1 side. Place on prepared baking sheet and lightly dust with flour. DO AHEAD: Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill. Cover and chill remaining grated cheese.

GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE



Gnocchi with Gorgonzola Sauce image

Gorgonzola continues to age as it is stored in the refrigerator, intensifying in piquancy as it does. To slow this process down, wrap the cheese tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the coldest part of the refrigerator. This sauce is a good way to use leftover Gorgonzola cheese.

Yield makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Potato Gnocchi (page 170)
Salt
1/2 cup Chicken Stock (page 74) or canned reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
Freshly ground black pepper
4 ounces Gorgonzola
1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

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.

Tips:

  • To save time, use store-bought gnocchi. You can find them in the refrigerated or frozen section of most grocery stores.
  • If you're using frozen gnocchi, be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the gnocchi. Cook them in batches if necessary.
  • Gnocchi is done cooking when it floats to the top of the water.
  • For a crispy texture, pan-fry the gnocchi until golden brown.
  • Use a good quality gorgonzola cheese for the sauce. It will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk instead. However, the sauce will be thinner.
  • Serve the gnocchi immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.

Conclusion:

Baked gnocchi with gorgonzola cream is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover gnocchi, and it's also a great dish to serve to guests. The gnocchi is crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside, and the gorgonzola cream sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
