Recipe Review

Ok, 3.5. It was tasty but ...
- I still haven't mastered making gnocchi that are fluffy in any sense. They were a bit lump-like although not the worst I've made.
- I didn't do the ricotta-through-the-sieve bit. I put all the gnocchi ingredients into the food processor and buzzed.
- I only used 1tsp of sugar (instead of 2tsp).
- The 1-1/2 cups of flour asked for the gnocchi did not give anything approximating "dough", even the soft dough that's specified. It was probably another cup that I added to get something that could be rolled and cut. And this could be why they were heavier than they should have been.
- The recipe says it serves 2 to 4. I cannot imagine two people eating all of this. I put half into the freezer and we still had a substantial meal.
- The gnocchi were tasty, but I can't say they tasted strongly of pumpkin.
- Makes a pretty dish.

Gnocci really has me flummoxed. I've tried two recipes, and both times, they completely fell apart in the boiling water. There must be some key to making them that I've totally missed.
