+Gnocchi is a pasta based on potato, making it a less bloating alternative to other kinds of pasta.
+They are substantial and can be roasted in butter and other ingredients.
+
+## Ingredients
+
+- potatoes
+- flour
+- tomato
+- parmesan
+- butter
+- sage or oregano or thyme
+
+## Directions
+
+1. Boil potatoes (with their skins) until mashable.
+2. Slice potatoes in two and scoop them out of their skin.
+3. Mash with a potato-masher while adding kosher salt.
+4. Slowly begin to add flour while mashing and kneading until there are no lumps of potato and the potato/flour mixture takes on a dough-like consistency.
+5. Begin to boil more water with lots of kosher salt added.
+6. Flour a work surface, pinch off some of the dough and roll it on the surface into a long chubby snake.
+7. Slice the dough snake into small pieces. Press the pieces with your finger to make an indentation.
+8. Add the pieces to the boiling water. They will rise to the top when they are ready.
+9. In a pan, melt butter and add sprigs of sage (oregano or thyme will work as well, albeit are less traditional). Smashed tomato juices are also a nice addition.
+10. Add the cooked gnocchi to the pan and roast them in butter for a minute or two until slightly browned. As pan begins to dry, add some pasta water.
+12. Serve gnocchi on a plate, grate on Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese liberally. Add garnish if desired.
