Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make gnocchi with mushrooms? Prepare your food. It is better to choose old potatoes, not young ones — they have more starch, and the dough will be better molded from them. The approximate amount of flour is given, it may take more or less, you will look at the dough. Any mushrooms will do — forest, frozen, dry. The only difference will be the way they are processed.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the potatoes well with a brush under the tap. Then, without cleaning, place in a saucepan, fill with clean cold water and cook over medium heat. After boiling, cook the potatoes for 25-30 minutes, depending on the size of the tubers. Check readiness with a knife — the blade will easily pierce and come out of the cooked potato. Drain the water from the potatoes. How to choose the perfect pan, read the article at the end of this recipe.
