Ricotta Gnudi image

This was getting raves on epicurious--tender fresh pillows of ricotta pasta--like gnocchi but made with ricotta instead of potatoes. They're time consuming but I thought it was worth it! It would save time to make thick ropes, half them lengthwise, half again and make interval cuts. From Bon Appetit.
