What is Gnocchi?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gnocchi means “lumps” in Italian. They are small dumplings made with potatoes and flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooked potatoes are mashed and combined with flour to create a dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then it is formed into small pieces for boiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are a pasta alternative that transforms into melt-in-your-mouth, light, and fluffy pillows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We love gnocchi. My favorite way is,  tossed with pesto or marinara sauce<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are all kinds of gnocchi available in the market these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The traditional one is, of course, potato gnocchi but you can even find cauliflower gnocchi at grocery stores now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While gnocchi can be made from scratch, they are widely available in stores fresh, frozen, or dried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I just buy the shelf-stable gnocchi that you can find in the pasta aisle in most major grocery stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can make may dish from the gnocchi. One way of using gnocchi is to make soup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gnocchi cooks right in the soup and the starch released from the potatoes helps to thicken it up and makes the soup smooth and hearty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This gnocchi soup is creamy with the addition of heavy cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also add fresh thyme and Italian seasoning to flavor it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is one of those meals which you can quickly put together in your Instant Pot on busy weeknights<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gnocchi cooks very fast so I did cook this soup in Instant Pot<\/a> for 1 minute on high pressure with quick-release pressure. I don’t like all gummy gnocchi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking for 1 minute in instant pot, It actually retained its texture pretty well. The pot does take time to come to pressure since there’s a lot of liquid and that time is more than enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
