- Ensure both regular potatoes and sweet potatoes are cooked until very soft to make mashing easier and the dough smoother.
- Use a ricer or a fine masher to achieve a lump-free potato mixture.
- Incorporate flour gradually when forming the dough; you want it to be soft but not too sticky.
- Dust your work surface and hands with flour to prevent sticking while rolling and cutting the gnocchi.
- Test-cook a small batch of gnocchi to check the texture before cooking the entire batch. Adjust with more flour if necessary.
- Use fresh sage if possible for the most vibrant flavor and aroma.
- Consider serving with a simple brown butter and sage sauce for a classic pairing.
