Gnocchi

1. 1

   Gather the ingredients.

2. 2

   Put the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with 2 inches of salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce to medium-high and simmer, without stirring, until tender but still firm, 25 to 30 minutes. Drain the potatoes, then return them to the pot to dry and cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes.

3. 3

   When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them by rubbing off the skins with your hands. Press the peeled potatoes through a potato ricer into a large bowl (or mash until very smooth). Let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.

4. 4

   Fold in the flour, egg, and salt until the flour is incorporated and the dough begins to hold together. Move the dough to a lightly floured surface and gently knead once or twice until mostly smooth (do not overwork).

5. 5

   Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll and shape each portion into long snakes about 3/4 inch in diameter.

6. 6

   Cut the snakes into pieces about 1/2 inch long. (Optional: Roll each piece against the tines of a fork or a gnocchi board to create light ridges.) Arrange the shaped gnocchi in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet dusted with flour.

7. 7

   Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high. Working in batches, drop in the gnocchi and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they rise to the top; use a spider or slotted spoon to transfer the cooked gnocchi to the desired sauce.
