GNOCCHI WITH MUSHROOMS AND GORGONZOLA SAUCE



Gnocchi with Mushrooms and Gorgonzola Sauce image

The earthy flavor of mushrooms is offset by a luscious Gorgonzola cheese sauce. It is important not to substitute another type of blue cheese in this dish; the creamy quality of genuine Gorgonzola is necessary for the best results.

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 pounds Yukon Gold or russet potatoes
3 tablespoons coarse salt
2 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil, for brushing
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
1 tablespoon coarse salt, plus more for seasoning
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup homemade or store-bought low-sodium vegetable stock
4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch of cayenne pepper
12 ounces assorted mushrooms, such as chanterelle, cremini, and portobello, stemmed and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Make the gnocchi: Lightly flour a baking sheet. Put potatoes in a large saucepan; cover with cold water by 2 inches. Bring to a boil; add 1 tablespoon salt. Reduce to a simmer; cook until potatoes are very tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 25 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes. When they are just cool enough to handle, peel, and then pass through a ricer or food mill into a medium bowl. Sprinkle with flour, and add eggs. Season with black pepper and 1 tablespoon salt. Stir mixture with a fork to combine.
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface; gently knead until it is soft and smooth, about 3 minutes. Divide dough into 4 to 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope about 3/4 inch thick. Cut ropes crosswise into 1-inch gnocchi.
  • Roll a cut side of each dumpling against the tines of a fork with your thumb so each piece has ridges on 1 side and an indentation on the other. Place on the floured baking sheet until ready to cook (up to 12 hours in the refrigerator, uncovered).
  • Lightly brush a rimmed baking sheet with oil. Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add 1 tablespoon salt. Add half the gnocchi; when they rise to the top (after about 2 minutes), continue to cook until tender, about 15 seconds more. Transfer gnocchi with a slotted spoon to the oiled baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining gnocchi. (The cooked gnocchi can be tossed in oil and stored, in an airtight container, in the refrigerator up to 24 hours.)
  • Make the sauce: Bring cream and stock to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high. Reduce heat, and let mixture simmer until slightly thickened and reduced by 1/3, about 10 minutes. Add Gorgonzola; stir until melted. Stir in nutmeg and cayenne. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium until hot but not smoking. Add mushrooms, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender and their released liquid has evaporated, about 4 minutes. Add gnocchi; cook, stirring gently, until just heated through. Pour cheese sauce over gnocchi and toss gently to coat evenly. Serve immediately.

Categories     Potato

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs potatoes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2/3 lb gorgonzola, dolce
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Make the gnocchi:.
  • Peel potatoes.
  • Boil the potatoes for about 20 minutes in salted water until tender.
  • Pass potatoes through the fine disk of a potato ricer, and cool.
  • Pour the potato onto the counter, and begin to mix in the flour.
  • Add a pinch of salt and gather into a dough.
  • Cut the dough into 4 pieces, and roll into finger-thick logs.
  • Cut each log into 1" pieces, and press each over the reversed tines of a fork (the resulting ridges allow the gnocchi to grab onto the sauce later).
  • Now dust a tray with flour and line the gnocchi in a single layer on top of it.
  • Set aside, and bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Once boiling, drop in the gnocchi, and remove them with a slotted spoon when they rise to the surface (this means they are ready).
  • Meanwhile, crumble the Gorgonzola into chunks, and melt in a pan over medium-low heat with the butter and cream.
  • When ready, combine the gnocchi and the sauce, sprinkle with the Parmigiano, and serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds Russet potatoes, about 2 large potatoes or 4 small potatoes
1/2 cup flour, plus more if needed plus more for dusting
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
2 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons finely chopped thyme leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cup cremini mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place whole unpeeled potatoes into a medium saucepan with cold water on medium heat. Bring the potatoes to a boil and cook for 20 to 25 minutes until soft enough to mash. Check with a knife to see if potatoes are cooked through and tender. Once ready drain the potatoes.
  • When cool enough to handle peel each potato and cut into small pieces and pass them through a potato ricer over a medium size bowl. Add the flour, Parmesan, egg yolks, nutmeg, thyme, salt and pepper and mix into a doughy consistency adding more flour as needed. Transfer dough to a well floured surface.
  • Using your hands roll pieces of the dough into a rope about 1/2-inch in diameter. With a knife cut the rope into 1/2 to 3/4-inch-long pieces. Flour the pieces as you cut them placing them on a floured baking sheet tray or lined with wax paper. Once rolled you can place the gnocchi in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap until ready to cook. When ready to cook place gnocchi in boiling salted water for about 1 to 2 minutes. They will rise to the top when done. Using a slotted spoon remove gnocchi from pot.
  • For the sauce
  • In a skillet add the butter and mushrooms and saute until nicely browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the white wine and reduce by half, about 5 minutes. Add the cream and gently simmer for another 2 to 5 minutes. Once the sauce has simmered, add the gnocchi and cook for 2 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan.
