Not being one for participating much in the love in of Italian food displayed all over North America, I have to confess that I have never attempted to make gnocchi before. Maybe when I was much younger I gave it a go, but the results must have been so average to have completely been erased from my memory. So, you'd think that for my first try I'd keep it simple and attempt to make the fluffiest, pillow like gnocchi possible. I didn't, not only dangerously messing about with the actual technique, but also introducing an ingredient that I had never heard about being used before.
