Instructions:
- Boil the Potatoes: Place the whole potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- Cook until Tender: Reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer until they are tender and can be easily pierced with a fork, about 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes.
- Drain and Cool: Drain the potatoes and allow them to cool slightly. Peel off the skins while they are still warm, but not too hot to handle.
2. Mash Potatoes: Peel the potatoes and either mash them or pass them through a potato ricer until smooth. It's important to get out all lumps for smooth gnocchi.
Tips:
- Ensure your potatoes are well-cooked and completely dry before mashing to achieve the perfect gnocchi texture.
- Use a potato ricer or grater for smoother, lump-free potato mash.
- When forming the gnocchi dough, incorporate the flour gradually to avoid overworking the dough.
- Cook the gnocchi in batches to prevent them from sticking together in the pot.
- Experiment with different types of mushrooms to enhance the earthiness of the dish further.
- Drizzle a little additional truffle oil over the finished dish for an extra layer of luxury.
