Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and crushed red pepper. Cook, stirring, until the garlic starts to lightly brown. Add the white wine and chicken broth. Bring the liquid to a simmer and let cook for 10 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook for 30 more minutes at a low simmer. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Pour the sauce into a blender container along with the butter and Parmesan. Process until smooth. Adjust the seasoning as needed with salt and pepper. Return the sauce to the saucepan and keep warm over the lowest heat setting. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the gnocchi and cook for 3-4 minutes or until they float to the surface. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon and place in a colander to drain. Add the gnocchi to the sauce and gently stir. Place the sauced pasta in individual serving bowls and garnish with fresh basil and additional Parmesan cheese.

Steps:
- Bake potatoes in a 350 degrees F oven until tender. When cool enough to handle scoop out the insides and put through a ricer to eliminate any lumps. In a small bowl combine the egg, salt and nutmeg. On a lightly floured work surface mound the potatoes making a well in the center. Pour in the egg mixture then, using your fingers or a fork, begin to mix the eggs into the potatoes working from the outside in as to not break the "moat." When eggs are about halfway combined begin to sprinkle a bit of the flour and cheese over the potatoes, continuing to lightly knead, bringing the mixture together adding more flour as needed to make a pliable dough. Once the dough is no longer sticky the dough is done. It is important not to overwork the dough creating gluten giving the dough a dense texture. Working quickly and lightly will give you light, airy gnocchi. Dust the board with flour and roll 1/4 of the dough into a long rope about 1-inch thick. Cut into thumb size sections and set aside, tossing with a bit of flour to avoid them from sticking together. Repeat with the other pieces of dough. Using the back of a fork take each gnocchi and gently roll over the tines by lightly pressing with your thumb and allowing the gnocchi to fall off the fork. Boil gnocchi in a large pot of salted water until they float. When they float they are done. Remove and toss immediately with Spicy Tomato Sauce. Garnish with torn basil leaves and additional cheese.;
- In a large saucepot over medium-high heat add olive oil. Add onions and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant. Add oregano, chili flakes and tomato paste, stir until combined and paste cooks into the mixture, about 1 minute. Add red wine, stirring until almost completely evaporated. Season with kosher salt, pepper, to taste, and tomatoes using the back of a spoon to break up the tomatoes. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer and allow to cook down about 20 minutes. Taste the sauce and add red wine vinegar, cheese and additional salt and pepper, if needed. If desired you may puree the sauce at this point using an immersion blender or keep it chunky. Serve with gnocchi.;
