      They say to boil off the liquid on super high heat, then lower the heat and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan regularly, until it's dark brown from the Maillard reaction...

      Brilliant, I always have issues getting a good Maillard with minced meat and can only achieve it when roasting bit by bit in small quantities

          This technique worked a treat

            Won't be getting many plaudits for my Gnocchi 🙂 They taste good, but I think the dough was too wet, so I found it very difficult to handle, and you are supposed not to work it too much, so I left it as is....

              @Giles the baking the potatoes on salt in the oven technique like you did it for the mash on the pie works great for gnocchi dough too.

                That is what I did. BUT, I did not put them on a bed of salt, which may have extracted more moisture from them....

                  Can also depend on what type of potatoes you used. I always do need more or less extra starch depending on the potatoes although I always work with the same recipe. That’s why Italian grandma‘s don’t use recipes, they feel the dough 😁

                          Coincidentally, last night I had a superb gnocchi ragu at my local (hole-in-the-wall) restaurant. No pics sorry…
                          They only make it on weekends. If it isn’t sold out, by Monday it tastes even better.

                          The journey is the objective.
