What is a "piccata"?

Giulia (waiting for Mr) Darcy 10 months ago

This is a wonderful tutorial by the author. I usually let the gnocchi rise and immediately put it in an ice bath... I usually make gnocchi when I do a piccata. We like adding the gnocchi into the pan after the piccata is completed... The gnocchi absorbs deglaze very well. I personally do not fry anything. Some like fried gnocchi. Good luck! :-)

Mert, yes you can make gnocchi with a fork! I used forks for years and years before I learnt about the board. Just make sure you remember to stick your fork into a small bowl set aside just for that as you don't put the used flour back into the bag. Keep your fingers floured as well! Makes life easier for you.
