Pasta,gnocchi

Gnocchi are a popular and simple food. They were probably 
created thanks to the cooks’ talent in the past to recuperate 
the leftovers and substantiate the lack of pasta. During the 
XVII century some Italian and French gourmets began to realize 
some recipes that highlighted the cooking versatility of 
potatoes, making them popular gastronomic food. Their typical 
shape comes from the grater, on the back of which the amalgam 
was slid, with a little pressure from the hand.
