Baked Gnocchi With Gorgonzola Cream Recipes

BAKED GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA CREAM

Steps:

• This recipe originally appeared on Giada Entertains: Giada's Dinner Party.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the butter and allow to melt. Add the shallot and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring often, until the shallot is fragrant and beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the flour and cook for another minute. Slowly whisk in the milk for a smooth sauce. Add the bay leaf and simmer for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. Whisk in the Gorgonzola until smooth. Add the gnocchi and stir to coat. Pour the mixture into an 8-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with the breadcrumb topping and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 25 minutes. Allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.

GNOCCHI WITH CREAMY GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil over high heat.
• Heat the heavy cream in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until small bubbles begin to form in the middle and on the sides, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the Gorgonzola and cook, stirring, until it's completely melted, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and whisk in the flour. Cook, stirring, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes more. Turn off the heat and cover to keep warm.
• To get the gnocchi into the boiling water, fold the parchment ends to form a chute and gently shake the gnocchi out, taking care not to clump them together as you drop them in. Give one gentle stir, wait until the gnocchi all float to the surface of the water, and then cook them for 1 minute. Carefully drain the gnocchi in a colander. Transfer them to the sauce and gently toss to coat. Serve immediately, topped with the parsley, if using.

Steps:

• To a large pot of boiling salted water, add gnocchi and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until they float to the surface. Drain and return to pot; cover to keep warm.
• In a medium saucepan, over medium-high heat, whisk together white sauce mix and milk. Bring to a boil stirring constantly. Reduce heat to simmer and add minced garlic and Gorgonzola crumbles. Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally for 2 to 3 minutes as sauce thickens; remove from heat.
• Add shredded chicken to gnocchi. Pour sauce over warm gnocchi and chicken, and toss to combine. Serve warm and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

GNOCCHI WITH CREAM OF ACORN SQUASH AND BORGONZOLA CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut acorn squash into quarters, remove seeds, brush with olive oil, and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast squash in the preheated oven until tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Remove squash from oven and scrape the flesh from the skins into a deep bowl. Discard the skins. Add butter, sage, and salt. Using a immersion blender, puree the squash.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add gnocchi and cook until they float, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove gnocchi from the water and place directly into the pureed squash. Add 1 or 2 ladlefuls of the hot cooking water. Toss lightly. Immediately divide onto 4 serving plates and dot with the Borgonzola cheese. Serve immediately.

GNOCCHI GRATIN WITH GORGONZOLA DOLCE

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot. Add water to cover by 1"; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until tender, 25-30 minutes. Drain; set aside and let cool slightly. Peel potatoes. Pass through ricer or a food mill or sieve, into a large bowl. Whisk egg and egg yolk in a small bowl to blend. Add egg mixture, 1/3 cup Parmesan, 1 cup flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and nutmeg to potatoes. Using your hands, gently mix to form a soft but not sticky dough. Transfer dough to a floured surface. Gather into a ball, then divide into 4 pieces.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; dust with flour. Working with 1 piece at a time (keep other pieces covered with a damp kitchen towel), roll dough into a 24"-long rope. Cut crosswise into 1" pieces. Working with 1 piece at a time, press lightly on gnocchi with the back of the tines of a fork and gently roll gnocchi to create ridges on 1 side. Place on prepared baking sheet and lightly dust with flour. DO AHEAD: Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill. Cover and chill remaining grated cheese.
• Bring cream, rosemary, and ginger to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat; cover and let steep for 30 minutes. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Working in batches of about 12 at a time, cook gnocchi until they float to the surface, 2-3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer gnocchi to a baking dish coated with 1 tablespoon butter.
• Mix 3 tablespoons Parmesan, remaining 1 tablespoon butter, and breadcrumbs in a small bowl. Strain reserved cream mixture into dish all over gnocchi. Break off small pieces of Gorgonzola; scatter over. Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over, then the breadcrumb mixture.
• Bake until the filling is bubbling and the topping is browned, 25-30 minutes.

GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat 2 quarts water in a deep skillet to boiling. Preheat the broiler.
• Grease a 2 quart baking dish or gratin dish with cooking spray.
• Add gnocchi to boiling water and cook until they float, about 3 minutes. Remove to prepared baking dish with a slotted spoon.
• Combine cheese, butter, cream and pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat.
• Cook, whisking occasionally until smooth; pour over gnocchi.
• Sprinkle with nuts. Broil 6 inches from heat source until bubbly, about 5 minutes.

GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the gnocchi.
• Bring 6 quarts of salted water to a boil in an 8-quart pot over high heat. (If you plan to cook the gnocchi as soon as they are formed, put the water on to boil while the riced potatoes are cooling. If you are cooking previously frozen gnocchi, make sure the water is boiling before you remove the gnocchi from the freezer.)
• Bring the stock, cream, and butter to a boil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season lightly with salt and pepper and boil until the sauce is lightly reduced, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the Gorgonzola until dissolved.
• Drop the gnocchi into the boiling water a few at a time, stirring gently and continuously with a wooden spoon. Cook just until they rise to the surface and roll over, 2 to 3 minutes. If the skillet is large enough to accommodate the sauce and gnocchi, gently scoop the gnocchi out of the boiling water with a large wire skimmer and add them directly to the sauce in the skillet. If not, drain the gnocchi gently, return them to the pot, and pour in the sauce. Bring the sauce and gnocchi to a boil, stirring gently to coat the gnocchi with sauce. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano. Check the seasoning, adding salt if necessary. Serve immediately in warm bowls.
