You guys ever eat Gnocchi?

....as a kid....very often.....my mom was northern Italian from the Dolomite Alps region in Trentino..........a very simple and economical (but different ) gnocchi recipe calls for the use of stale Italian bread instead of any potatoes.......the crust is cut off and the bread is broken up into smaller pieces and soaked in milk..........flour and spinach is added to the right consistency along with whatever favorite spices you may like. You just scoop out a spoonful of the mix and drop it into boiling water and they're done when the gnocchi floats to the service. You make a big bowl full and then can add your favorite sauce on top. My mom simply used a melted stick of butter and also mixed in a half dozen fried scrambled eggs. I loved it.................all I can say is it doesn't sound too appetizing but anyone who ever tried it gave it a big thumbs up............also very quick and easy dish to make...............you got me going and I'm going to make some very soon..............the key is to get the right consistency so the mix is sticky and holds together well when dropped into the boiling water.......GO FOR IT!

Regional varieties One variety, gnocchi di pane (literally "bread lumps"), derived from the Semmelknödel, is made from breadcrumbs and is popular in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Veneto and Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol. Another variety from the latter region is spinach gnocchi.[ citation needed]
