As an Italian, one of the major things I miss is pasta. So to have an easy pasta replacement that is similar to what I use to enjoy, is amazing! For spaghetti and such I like Natural Heaven’s hearts of palm pasta but this is a good replacement for when I make things like ravioli or sweet potato gnocchi for my son and husband. And it is just nice to have a different option other than hearts of palm pasta.

  1. You are Amazing Alycia!! No doubt.
    Can't wait until You have a dairy free line so us less fortunate can indugle in such great things!!
    Do You believe if I make super thick greek stye coconut yogurt, that that can stand in for the soft cheeses??
    I can add things like cream of tartar, vinegar, citric acid… to get a bit of sour like real cheese… Yes??
    Maybe?? 🤗😍🙏🏼🗝️💎🖖🏼

  2. I just happen to have an unopened container of ricotta. This couldn't have come at a better time!

  3. Oh my…that looks delish ! 😋
    Well done, as always 👍👍
    Excited about ordering from your bakery.

  4. Can’t wait to try these! My Italian MIL taught me to roll the gnocchi on the back of the fork, pushing a slight intention in one side with your finger while making ridges on the side touching the fork. The ridges and the indentations help to hold onto the sauce.

  5. I was just thinking about gnocchi the other day, I have a wonderful recipe with lemony chicken, garlic, spinach, heavy cream and parm..that I have been craving! And here you are, showing me how I can actually have it! Thank you!

  6. I’m so excited for your shop! I love gnocchi and haven’t had it in YEARS! I can make these. I love them fried up, too. Thank you so much, Alycia! Hugs.

  7. Just a quick thin crust pizza if there is such a thing ..like traditionally little bread flour with little yogurt and baking powder and salt 👍

  8. Thank you so much for figuring out a good keto gnocchi. I can barely wait to make this! We can finally get bamboo fibre here in Canada. The $20 bag is $50 here! I don’t care. I ordered it anyway.

  9. Alycia, instead of rolling the gnocci with the fork, put the pillow on the fork and roll it with your finger. When you do it that way, it makes the lines on the outside of the pillows. Hope that helps!

  10. I thought I could smell the browned butter when you were frying the gnocchi 😅. Thanks Alycia for another inspiring recipe …….. love anything Italian ❤❤❤

  11. I've never had gnocchi, but i've heard from my Italian friend that it's tasty. . So I'm interested in trying this. Ironically, I just bought some ricotta recently, but forgot what I wanted it for.

  12. Thank you! Trying these tomorrow. Just ordered some of your breads, and made the lemon short bread cookies :). ❤❤❤.

  13. Wow Alycia what a great recipe. Thanks for all your experimenting. Looks really yummy. I was wondering if one wasn’t opposed to using vital wheat gluten instead of xanthan gum ( if possible) what would the amount be do you think? I am still gonna make this regardless. Cheers.

  14. I’m also Italian ❤ I like mine a little firmer, could I use vital wheat gluten in this recipe and if so, how much do you think? I’m doing this for sure! Roll your gnocchi off the top of the fork 😉

  15. Thank you for pronouncing gnocchi correctly. I cringe at restaurants where they butcher it, lol. I grew up with my grandpa making ricotta gnocchi. We never did potato. We've always rolled them down the fork, then proceeded to make the ultimate mistake of eating until we were full, and not leaving expansion space 😂. We've never fried them, but that looks delicious. Can't wait to try the recipe! Happy days.

  16. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwww ❤❤❤, thank you sooooo much for this savory recipe, dear Alycia 👍👌👍👌👍, will try these gnocchis pretty soon 😊❣❣❣

    Unfortunately you won't ship your goods to Germany 😢 buuuuuuuut I'm wishing you good luck and success for your little shop !!

    Nice greetings from Germany,
    Ela 🤗

  17. Looks delish! How about a dumpling recipe for chicken and dumplings? Wish you shipped to my current area. I need some hot dog buns 🥰

  18. Congratulations on your “sponsored ad”!! during your video. As always you are a master and thank you for creating and sharing your knowledge! This savory recipe looks delicious 😋. I love watching and learning from you.

  19. I've never had gnocchi so I don't know what they're supposed to taste like, but I'll bet this dough would make good dumplings. Thanks Alycia!
