    Don't have a biscuit cutter, but I do have a dinosaur cookie cutter. Let the fun begin.

    When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought this was a sweet dish. And because I was so set on SWEET, I decided to make it sweet the secound time. I left out the parmesan, added sugar and topped with butter, sugar and cinnamon and just a hint of nutmeg before baking. Served with vanilla sauce, fruit sauce or jam it is just as delicious.
    Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe.

      Not so bad, considering all the great dishes of the world were created by peasants! Everything from Coq au vin to Aloo Ghobi to Pho to Piri Piri Chicken to Moussaka ... we have the poor to thank for it all!

    Maybe setting the mixture into a log and then cutting in slices when its cooled, even easier still and no leftover bits :)

    As a Roman I approve of this recipe HOWEVER I need you to try and add nutmeg to the milk and sage to the melted butter and add it also before you put the gnocchi in the oven. Sage and nutmeg improve everything

    Ages ago, I went to an Italian restaurant and when I ordered gnocchi (and I pronounced it as in Italian) - the waitress said "oh, dear, that's guh-notch-eee"
    I never went back there.

    G'day Chef John, I had these in Italy last year. They were so good I thought, this is one of those magical ethnic dishes that an old anglo-saxon cook can never recreate. Thank you so much for this recipe. I'll be doing this tomorrow and, I hope, for a long time to come because they are sublime! Many thanks. You are a legend!

    Probably very close to what polenta was before the introduction of maize from the New World. This looks very good. I'm thinking black pepper and nutmeg instead of the cayenne though.

    Thankyou Chef John for (re)introducing to us the classics of European Cuisine in a totally relaxed attitude, to (re)discover the basics of traditional wholefoods, to dare I say it play a riff on understood technique....you are the best thankyou! Love from Aotearoa New Zealand

    @medicaldawg9734 8 лет назад +11

    i'm from rome, and usually when foreign people make italian dishes they butcher the recipes and i get mad, but I didn't get mad watching this recipe, so you know it's good :) (although there's no cayenne as he said in the traditional recipe, and we usually put pecorino cheese instead of parmigiano in the last step)

    Chef John, I just need you to know that thanks to you we keep real parmasan in the fridge at all times now. I never liked the gross dry bottled stuff anyway, so just never really used parmasan ever. But the real stuff has changed my life. Just this week I made mashed potato pancakes with shredded parmasan in and on top of them. And I won't even tell you how often we cut a bit off for a snack. Thank you, Chef John.

    Yum! My husband's family (from Romania) does something similar with polenta, but I think I'd prefer this version since parmesan sounds better than cheese aged in a sheep's stomach. ;)

    Wouldn't it be easier to form a roll before chilling it in the fridge and then cut it in slices? You could easily scip that scrap-part.

    • @McJaews
      @McJaews 8 лет назад +26

      Try it out and reply with your results :) As someone who has a smaller fridge than Chef John, and no cookie cutter, I'd love to hear how it turned out for you.

    • @tarikra3320
      @tarikra3320 8 лет назад +105

      I tried it for lunch today. Just had to do it. The taste was awesome. I formed a roll with plastic wrap and put it in the fridge. It needed a little longer to cool and firm up, but if you wet your knife and cut it in slices it works perfectly fine.

    • @McJaews
      @McJaews 8 лет назад +30

      Tarik RA Cool:) Gonna try it out. I was contemplating cutting it with string, but the wet knife sounds like a better, more practical way of doing it.
