Time 1h30m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 ounces dried cepes
1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, sifted, plus up to 1/2 cup for kneading
2 tablespoons minced sage
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Combine cepes and 6 cups water in a saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until reduced to 1 quart, about 30 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh sieve. Finely chop the mushrooms. Set both broth and mushrooms aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet. Bake until tender, about 40 minutes. Peel and pass through a ricer into a large bowl. Combine sweet-potato puree, flour, sage, salt and pepper. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough, adding more flour if needed, until it is smooth and slightly sticky. Shape the dough into small dumplings. Set aside.
  • Pour the mushroom broth in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Working in batches, drop the gnocchi into the broth. Cook 10 seconds after the dumplings rise to the surface, about 5 minutes total. Remove with a slotted spoon and divide among 4 warmed bowls. Ladle the broth over the gnocchi, sprinkle with Parmesan and serve.
