You know guys, here in Argentina it is estimated that people are 65% Italian descendants, and almost all of our food is Italian-based. Traditionally we have gnocchi every month on the 29th, because back in the days where Italian immigrants came to Argentina (late 1800s and early 1900s), at the end of the month they have almost no money left, so they cooked what was the cheapest, and that was gnocchi. And we keep that tradition to this day. You should really come to Argentina one day! We'll be very surprised and glad to find out all the Italian influence we have in food, language and culture. If you ever come, do so in winter and let me know!

A little tip. Once the potatoes are cooked (I like to cook mine in the microwave, they are tastier and stay drier), you cut them in half, without peeling them. Then you place the part without the peel on the perforred side of the potato ricer and press. The peel remain inside and you can easily remove it. It's quicker and less messy. My personal preferance is gnocchi with ragù. But I like gnocchi with gorgonzola and speck too

In Chile we have a similar dough also made with potatoes and flour without eggs that is made in Chiloé and is called "chapalele" but it is shaped like flat and round bread that is steamed in a hole in the ground with hot stones. in the background, which is called "Curanto" which is made with shellfish on hot stones and on top of it chicken meat, smoked pork, chorizos, potatoes and covered with "Pangue" leaves where the chapaleles are placed and covered again with Pangue leaves and on top and on top more earth is placed and everything is cooked in the steam that the shellfish release. When everything is cooked, the soil on top is removed, the leaves and the food that is served in dishes is removed and finally a person can be served on his plate: shellfish, chicken, pork, potatoes and chapalele.

Okay so today I made a large batch of Pasta grammar gnocchi. Just listen to me.. really.. first if you are making her no egg recipe, these are delicate and you will need a delicate touch. A gnocchi board is wonderful, but one, it can get gummy so keep it floured and rub the channels clean as you go. Secondly, rolling gnocchi takes a delicate touch. It is a lot of finger roll flick. It takes time to master. Be patient. The only other thing I can advise is have fun and choose a room you don’t mind flour everywhere. Well, not really, all baking and pasta making is a bit messy. But so much fun. My cat even got into it.

I hardly ever make Italian food, because there are so many more cuisines that I prefer, but I made Eva’s gnocchi recipe from few years ago, and it is the best I’ve ever made. It’s now my go-to recipe. Lots of other people add eggs, and it makes the gnocchi gummy. 🤮 Her recipe is easy and good. ETA: Eva should never feel bad for saying negative things about Gordon Ramsey’s cooking. He’s rude AF and helped further the “good chefs are rude and mean to their sous chefs” culture in kitchens. I love watching rah video where he puts ketchup in pad Thai, I love the look the Thai chef gives him when he eats it. 😂 Pad Thai is also simple, tamarind, fish sauce, palm sugar, and Ramsey over-complicated it as well.

I have often said that if I could only eat one type of cuisine for the ret of my life, what would it be. I don't even have to think about it. French? Mexican? Morrocan? Nope!

Our neighbor when I was a kid in the 1970s was Italian and she made gnocchi, but she made it slightly different than you. She baked her potatoes rather than boil them because she wanted her potato to be 'really dry' and that's the way I still make them because I tried boiling them and couldn't believe how much more flour was needed. She also left the egg out, but her 'secret' was she'd grate fresh parmesan and leave it on the counter overnight before powdering it and adding that to the potato and flour. Her children were adults and lived in other States, so she was the entire neighborhood's 'Italian grandmother.' She passed away right after I graduated high school in '86 and her kids were stunned at the fact that everyone-- every single neighbor within 20 houses of her came to her funeral. She was a WW2 bride and her husband had passed in the 1960s so all of the kids in the neighborhood did her yard work, painted the house, went with her grocery shopping to carry everything. Most of us were closer to Nonna Bice than our own grandparents.

I love you guys very much and religiously watch your videos every Sunday. I was a little upset when Eva said no eggs in gnocchi mixture politely. As a kid I watched my father who was from Terni make these from scratch, always putting eggs in his mixture. I am sure he learned this way before Gordon started making these. I just watched a video from "Vincenzo's Plate" and his grandmother put egg In the mixture. There is also another video from Boun-A-Petitti "Italian grandma makes gnocchi". Finally "Gennaro makes Gnocchi" he's got egg as well. Some where there's a disconnect about using eggs!

Lots of people uses eggs (also in Italy). Are they good? Yes! Are they like the real gnocchi with just potatoes and flour? No!

Love this video, Funny and instructive at the same time!

Eva, you are amazing! My Nonna and Mom made Gnocchi just like you did. Beautiful! And I like that little 'dig' at Gordon Ramsay. I hate when he thinks he knows what he's doing with real Italian cooking. 🙄 Eva, you're the best! 👍

I love gnocchi! Thank you for this video! I’ve made gnocchi three times this month. Once with baked potatoes, once with leftover mashed potatoes and once with mashed potatoes and ricotta. Now I will try your recipe! They’re all good recipes, nice and soft!! Thanks again, you’re a fun couple! ♥️👵

Why in heaven am I watching this at 10 PM? Now I'm hungy... this looks soooo good, I can almost taste and smell the contents of that kitchen. Me just having returned from Ticino I had amazing gnocchi there. I am now craving a bowl of good, home-made gnocchi. Yummmmmmm... I'm drooling here.

I love gnocchi with pesto! Fantastic!

I have some shortcuts for the potatoes. Microwaving the potato will dry it out a bit. Then I chop them in half and throw them in the ricer cut side against the holes and rice. I can then just pull out the clean skin. It worked great for gnocchi.
