RICOTTA GNOCCHI WITH SPRING HERB PESTO



Ricotta Gnocchi with Spring Herb Pesto image

Chef Walter Pisano, a 1999 Workshop alumnus, makes an aromatic pesto that includes neither basil nor garlic. He makes it with fresh spring herbs-parsley, chives, and mint-in place of the basil that doesn't mature until summer. It's lively and light, just the right complement to his feather-light gnocchi, but you could use this pesto on fresh pasta or fish as well. Chef Pisano's gnocchi melt on the tongue when made with high-quality ricotta. At the winery, we use Bellwether Farms ricotta (see page 77), but Calabro also makes an excellent product. You may need to visit a specialty cheese shop to find fresh ricotta. Supermarket ricotta containing gums or stabilizers will not produce the most delicate gnocchi.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound whole-milk ricotta
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground white pepper
1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flour, or as needed
1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/4 cup sliced fresh chives
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh mint
3 tablespoons lightly toasted pine nuts
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the gnocchi: In a large bowl, combine the ricotta, Parmesan, nutmeg, salt, and several grinds of pepper. Stir with a wooden spoon until smooth. Add just enough flour to make a soft dough that will not stick to your floured hands, about 1/2 cup. Divide the dough into four equal pieces. On a lightly floured board, with floured hands, roll each piece into a 3/4-inch-thick rope, 14 to 15 inches long, then cut each rope into 1-inch pieces. Place the gnocchi on a lightly floured tray and refrigerate for 2 hours to allow the flour to hydrate and the gluten to relax.
  • For the pesto: In a food processor, combine the parsley, chives, mint, pine nuts, and salt and process to a paste. With the motor running, gradually add the olive oil through the feed tube, processing until nearly smooth. Transfer to a bowl and add pepper to taste.
  • Bring a large pot of unsalted water to a boil over high heat. Add the gnocchi and lower the heat to maintain a bare simmer. Cook until the gnocchi float to the top, about 1 minute, then cook for 1 minute longer.
  • Whisk a little of the hot pasta water into the pesto to thin it to a sauce consistency. Lift the gnocchi out of the pot with a skimmer or strainer and transfer to a warmed serving bowl. Add the pesto and toss to coat evenly. Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy with Cakebread Cellars Napa Valley Chardonnay or another full-bodied white wine.

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the peas. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until tender. Use a strainer to transfer the peas to a bowl of ice water to cool. Once cooled, drain the peas and set aside. Reserve the pot of water.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the egg. Whisk in the ricotta cheese until smooth. Then, whisk in the grated parmesan. Add the flour and salt to the bowl. Use a wooden spoon to incorporate it. Do not over stir (stop just when all of the flour is absorbed and the dough comes together).
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Gently roll the dough into a long rope, adding a little more flour if needed. Cut the rope into ½-1” pieces. Transfer the gnocchi to the pot of salted boiling water. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until they float to the top.
  • Meanwhile, add 3 tablespoons of the butter to a small saucepan over medium heat. Allow to melt. Lower the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the butter until golden brown and fragrant.
