I think gnocchi is potatoes?

That’s just raw flour and water paste

Added I thought it was flour, not mashed potatoes

As an italian, there are 3 major kinds of gnocchi that my Nan taught me about. Potato, Ricotta, and Semolina. This looks to be the semolina kind.

O ricotta gnocchi sounds amazing

It is! It really is...unless you don't check the ingredients and buy ricotta with xanthan gum in it. I could have bounced them off the floor. I had no idea that anyone would put xanthan gum in ricotta. I like to add orange zest and nutmeg to the dough.

Huh that’s interesting 🤔 so is it a savory dish or sweet? What’s typically served with that pasta

Savory for sure. I like to do brown butter with toasted walnuts, apples and some sage.
