Gnocchi are soft, pillowy dumplings traditionally made from a mixture of potatoes, flour, and eggs, though some variations may include ricotta or other ingredients. Originating from Italian cuisine, gnocchi have been a beloved staple for centuries, often served with sauces like marinara, pesto, or browned butter. Nutritionally, gnocchi provide carbohydrates for energy, primarily from the potatoes and flour. They are generally low in fat, but their calorie content can rise depending on portion size and toppings. While not a significant source of protein or fiber, they can be paired with vegetables, lean proteins, or whole-grain flours to enhance their nutritional value. Store-bought varieties may include additional preservatives or sodium, so homemade options offer greater control over ingredients. For those seeking indulgent comfort food with a cultural twist, gnocchi offer a versatile and satisfying base for countless dishes.
