Tuscanity 200 gr of potatoes per person already boiled
2-3 table spoons of flour
Salt & pepper
20 leaves of fresh basil
1 table spoon of Silken tofu
Dry yeast to taste
50-70 grams of pine seeds
100 ml of Evo
Put Basil, tofu, pine seeds and evo in a mixer to obtain a smooth creamy consistency. Adjust quantity of oil if needed.
Add yeast to taste.
Pesto is now ready, it can be put it in a jar and keept it into the fridge covered with evo for 1 week.
When you need to use it put some water to adjust consistency, usually I use 1 tablespoon of pesto mixed with 2 tablespoon of water per person.
Mash the potatoes and add as many table spoons of flour as the mixture will require to become soft but workable.
Form a cylinder and cut it into small pieces to get the gnocchi.
Cook the gnocchi in boiling water for 1 minute or so, season them with pesto and …
enjoy it!!!
enjoy Tuscany!!
