Fun fact: the first time I made gnocchi, they fell apart in the water and I didn’t try to make them again until last week, 10 years later.

“Episode 69: Gnocchi” Gnice.

In Italian slang “gnocca” means umm... female parts and since this is ep.69 I don’t think this is unintentional...

is anyone else super jealous of his huge cutting board of a kitchen counter

"This is no job for Tiny Whisk" Well, not with that attitude it isn't

for 7 million, Babish should just do a compilation of him going "season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper"

Does anyone else just binge watch all his episodes when life is punching you in the gut with brass knuckles?

Babish at 0:45 : "This is a great use for leftover potatoes[...]" Me, of Irish blood: "For what now?"

fun fact : babish seasons his kosher salt with kosher salt before using it

The last time he used his ricer was July of 2019, KFC from stranger things was the video. The ricer may be in the same place as his food safe bucket, which has also not appeared in any video since then.

"Gnocchi" to me means "delicious lil potato dumpling" but also "that one time I tried making my own and accidentally almost burned my house down." Yay...

Thank you for the recipe our son made it for us for Father’s Day. They were fluffy and yummy with a great Bolognese sauce I made. Our son turned us onto your channel keep on doing what you are doing! You rock!

Idk about anyone else, but I'd love to see him make the food from American Psycho.

Tip: If you can't toss the pan you can optionally just stir it like a sane person.

“This is no job for tiny whisk.” *Impossible*

Okay so Babish you are one of my biggest inspirations to pursue the culinary arts as a career. Proof of that is now, I'm currently panicking over poor grades in class and potentially losing my job as a cook. Just hearing the Basics theme song and remembering when I made this recipe reminded me of why I'm even doing this. From the bottom of my heart, thank you man.

This honestly looks like the first thing you've made that I might be able to pull off in my own basic kitchen. Potatoes, flour, eggs for the gnocchi then some sauce. awesome :)

i like how he refers to them as gnocchs, as if they're his little children

My grandma forgot to poke her potatoes before baking them and they did indeed explode

Phenomenal sauces and video!! My grandma said to boil a few gnocchi first - if they fall apart in the water it means you didn’t knead the dough long enough. This video made me subscribe!! 💕💕

My wife is lactose-intolerant, so we do not make a lot of cheese dishes. Needless to say, I was salivating for the entire video, so I might need to treat myself.

*Sees Title Me: Gnocchi *Sees episode number Me: Gnice

Could you make Lembas Bread from The Lord of the Rings. “One small bite is enough to fill the stomach of a grown man”

My girlfriend can tell when I'm listening to "Babish's melodious tones" across the apartment. You are a beautiful man.

fun fact: little gnocchi are called "gnocchetti" and are, in fact, a thing for a gluten-free version, use potato starch instead of flour

"Top it with a little bit of freshly grated nutmeg" *John Townsend would like to know your location.*

Beating the egg in the shell is a huge power move

Under quarantine your videos are so easy to follow and i've recently expanded my culinary horizons. Thank you so much

hey Andrew thank you so much I just treated myself to the best home cooked meal of my life you are an inspirational to all I love you

5:08 him grating that nut meg really gave off "2 shots of vodka" energy

Honestly disappointed that Episode 69 of "Basics with Babish" wasn't about different ways to prepare dinner for two

I was trying to make gnocchi for the first time ever for Christmas Eve dinner and this really helped me . They turned out well

I am shocked that you only fried your Gnocchi for one of the variants. Frying Gnocchi elevates them to an entirely new level imo, the texture, the slight roasted potatoe flavour, its to die for.

"I like big ol' gnoccs." Andrew that sentence took a couple years off my life.

Can we take a moment to reflect on the fact that this man just beat an egg yolk in its shell?

Quite possibly the best no B.S. straight forward tutorial on any cooking subject I've ever seen. Well done.

Thank you so much for making these videos. I have started working with my kids on cooking again. I asked them to find a recipe and we would get the ingredients and make it. Gnocchi with browned butter and sage is what he chose. It turned out great. We also made your beignets, which also turned out great. Thank you.

“Potato Piercer” was, coincidentally, one of my favorite movies.

babish: *pronounces saute pan like a normal person* everyone: wait, that's illegal

I made the riccota gnocchi this evening, with the browned butter sage sauce. Everything was a phenomenal 10/10! I really only wish to perfect my shaping of the dumplings. Thank you for sharing the recipe!! I was thrilled to receive your book as a gift last Christmas. After making this tonight… I look even more forward to dipping into your book.

i love how he said “take that off the heat so nobody gets burned” but yet he kept the burner on directly in front of him with nothing on top of it

Hearing Andrew say “Sauté pan” regularly after so long is weird and slightly unsettling.

Gordon Ramsay: Olive oil Adam Ragusea: White wine Babish: *Kosher Salt*

Fried “ravioli” gnocchi: Smash balls of the dough into circles with a finger (similar to the divot shape.) get two circles and place a small slice of string cheese (or other desired) in between the circles. Crimp closed, pushing out as much air as possible. Cover in a dish of bread crumbs and gently push so the crumbs stick. Pan or deep fry until golden.

Thank you for the recipe. I just made some with the browned butter and it tastes amazing.

So I tried this out for dinner tonight and it came out pretty well for a guy who's never made pasta dough before! I ended up rolling them into balls and then making the little finger dent in them. Also I didn't have any of the sauce ingredients you mentioned so I hodge-podged something out of chopped baby bella mushrooms, chopped white onions, a quarter cup of whole milk, 3 cloves of crushed garlic, some rosemary, 3 tablespoons of butter (cuz I'm extra), some oregano, 3/4 of a cup of pasta water, and of course, KS and FGBP to taste. And it came out pretty decent along with finely sliced yellow squash and zucchini, and a couple chicken mozzarella sausages. I managed to surprise my parents (I'm a total amateur at cooking) and I'm really happy with the recipes of yours I've followed! I made your recipe for latkes last week and they came out pretty well! Thank you for making these videos! It has inspired a love of cooking in a guy who's diet in college has consisted of microwave burritos, leftovers, and hot dogs. (And I can't believe I typed out the whole of what I did. I got a little carried away there)

I used to make gnocchi with my nonna, about 30 years ago, the memory is still so vivid in my head. Thanks for this nostalgic memory and video ❤️

Thank you.That was very well explained.❤

I followed your method and technique. It came out perfect, nice job and thanks for sharing.

I feel bad... like we bullied him into saying pan instead of “saucepin”

"skin covered hands" I know nothing is wrong with it, its literally correct, but idk why It just sounds so weird for me

I will try it today for sure. Excellent

I love gnocchi! My favorite thing to do is prepare them alongside with a poultry or red meat of choice and make a bleu cheese sauce with the meat drippings, the bleu cheese, and deglaze with a red wine. Incredible.

I'd love to see you make lobsters with lemon, basil butter, and garlic chives from Scooby-Doo and the Gourmet Ghost

As a person who is allergic to potatoes I'm glad there's a potatoless gnocci.

I just tried gnocchi today and now I can officially say these are amazing

I made the gorgonzola version today and let me tell you, it was the best gnocchi gorgonzola I have ever had. Ever. Thank you for this recipe, it’s now in my permanent arsenal.

This video taught me their are only 3 kinds of freaks -parsley -cheese -nutmeg

My dad bought a bag of gnocchi and told me to figure out what to do with them. After they sat in the fridge for a couple of weeks because I didn't feel like figuring out an Italian recipe I decided that since they're made from potato I'd prep them like baked potato. I boiled them for a few minutes and drained them. I baked them in an oiled pan for a bit, pulled them out, topped them with butter, baked them again. Topped the finished product with butter, sour cream, and cheddar cheese.

Your kitchen is so perfect!

I just made them! I made my own sauce with just experimenting till it tasted good. I also made them gluten free and I used an egg substitute because my friend is allergic but they still turned out really well!

Technically the "Gnocchi" made with ricotta cheese is "Gnudi" or "naked" a very popular dish during the winter in northern Italy and sometimes added to the tops of salads in the summer

Just made a variation on the fried gnocchi! So rich and delicious thank you for you tips and tricks!!

Y’all these are sooo good! Just made these with pesto mushrooms and some parmesan-super good!

who else cannot stop watching babish during quarantine despite not knowing how to even pour my own cereal

I'm making that last one. It had the most fork shakes.

Thank you for sharing!

Just found you and very happy I did! Love the videos and commentary! Cheers🍷

Me, back in the early days when I learned Babish is lactose intolerant: Oh nice! Maybe I’ll finally have a chef to follow along with for lactose free videos and ingredient suggestions! Me, now: yes! More cheese! Put it on the cream sauce! We’re in this together and there’s no going back!!

You and James Townsend must have a great nutmeg relationship.

Always wanted to make gnocchi and never did until tonight. They came out great!!!

I appreciate the use of the metric system!

"If you're a nutmeg fan like me..." Jas Townseds & Sons: Allow us to introduce ourselves....

"and if you're really a nutmeg freak like me..." Wild TOWNSEND appeared!

This looks so good I can't wait to make it at home !!!

Ive been wanting to make gnocchi for the past two weeks but was too intimidated and couldnt find an easy to follow recipe online. Thanks for coming to the rescue!

9:52 even through an oncoming sneeze, Babby delivers

Thank you so much for this recipe!! I followed a different recipe years ago and it was AWFUL and finally tried again with this recipe today and it was DELICIOUS!! I will be making these again and again. The gnocchi was soooo soft

To the point! My fav kind of recipes.

In Poland we call this "kopytka" and we make them with cheese AND potatos and also fried (in butter) onion inside.

“Then drizzle the Gorgonzola cream sauce over top” Me: hohohoho woof

Honestly, best episode ever. I've been laughing while have an urge to cook Gnocchis and try those sauces.. Congrats on a perfect video!

i actually did make this the other day, but i just seared it in some burnt garlic butter and some squeezed lemon juice, works surprisingly well, and prevents hardening of gnocchi while eating

"If you're a nutmeg freak like me" John Townsend?? Is that you??

The only reason I know what gnocchi is is because of the cat in curious George. That show was my life as a kid :)

A lactose intolerant individual: ie me “I want to risk it all for these gnocchi damn it”

I love gnocchi and your recipe looks amazing! Great video!

"-and I don't want to confuse *you*, the viewer." Is that a 'The Wolfe Pit' reference? I hope it is he's a nice bloke

Remember, the potatoes must scream "IDI NAHUI", then you know they're done.

Oh thank god, I had some pumpkin saved over and was going to make it with that, but completely forgot the basics. Great refresher corse 👍

I'm drowning in heartwarming childhood memories, thanks for that. New italian subscriber right here :)

Recreate Studio Ghibli Foods A lot of people want this, make it happen Babish PLEASE

When I was little, I would go to a pizza place with my parents for happy hour. I would eat the gnocchi off the appetizer menu while my folks got cheap pizza. From about age 3 to 6 my favorite food was, "Gnocchi with gorgonzola cream sauce". And then I was introduced to Udon and pho.

wow love this!

Binging with babish is such a relaxing creater

I made gnoicchi with my sister a month before she went to college the whole time we were talking about all the things she was going to do and it is still one of my favorite memories so seeing this video brings back memories!
