I thought I'd repost this with the recipe this time, as I forgot to included it the first time. This is my first time making pasta from scratch and it was a very interesting experience.

Here's a brief rundown of the recipe I followed, courtesy of the website Recipes from Italy (with some adjustments):

On your work surface, mix 2.625 cups of all purpose flour, 0.25 tsp sea salt, 0 25 tsp of ground black pepper, and 0.125 tsp of ground nutmeg. Form a well in the middle and add roughly 2.5 cups of pumpkin puree (I made mine from scratch using a medium-ish sized pumpkin leftover from Halloween). In a small bowl beat 1 egg. Form a well in the center of the pumpkin puree. Pour in the egg and incorporate it with a fork and work it until it's homogeneous. Working with your hands, gently knead the dough and form it into a loft. Use a sharp knife to cut pieces from the dough. Shape the pieces into finger thick logs and chop the logs into about 2 cm pieces or into desired size. I don't have a gnocchi board so I didn't give them their signature stripes. You can either cook them right away or freeze them for later use. I'll be making them with garlic and mushrooms in a rosemary butter.
