Kid’s Club: Gnocchi

Calling all Kiddos! Let’s make pasta from scratch: no special equipment necessary!  In our virtual Kid’s Club: Gnocchi we’ll whip up homemade, melt-in-the-mouth gnocchi. With just 1 egg, flour, and ricotta — you’ll have a new favorite meal. In class, we’ll make enough for you eat, plus more to proudly share with your family. They’ll be amazed!

We’ll also make the scrummiest homemade tomato sauce for your gnocchi. You’ll never use jarred sauce again!

Kiddos, you will need to be at the stove for part of this class, so if you or your adult is not quite comfortable with that, make sure they’re around to help you for the last 15 minutes of class: the part where we get cooking.

Kid’s Club: Gnocchi: Just a few ingredients make the magic!

Here’s what to have on hand to get ready for class. This will make 4 servings:

Ingredients

15 ounces (1 tub) ricotta
2 cups flour, plus plenty of additional flour for rolling/shaping*
1 egg
2-3 tomatoes
1 clove of garlic
parmesan, romano, or pecorino cheese
optional: a few leaves of fresh basil

*for a gluten-free version, use gluten-free all-purpose flour in place of regular flour. (King Arthur and Bob’s Red Mill both carry nice gluten-free flours.)

(also have to hand olive oil and/or butter, salt and pepper)

Equipment

bowl and a large spoon 
large pot with salted water – brought to a boil before class, turned off and lidded
wooden spoon (if you have one)
a cheese grater and/or Microplane
a garlic press (if you have one)
