Preparation

Step 1

Cook potatoes 35 mins. or until tender. Drain, cool and mash potatoes. Combine potatoes with 1 1/2 C. flour, salt and next 4 ingds. (salt through egg white) stirring to form soft dough.

Turn out onto well floured surface, knead in spinach. Add enough of remaining flour, 1 T. at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands. Divide dough into 6 portions; shape into 18" long rope. Cut rope into 18 (1") pieces; roll each into a ball. Drag tines of a fork through half of each ball, forming a concave shape. Place on a baking sheet coated with Pam.

Bring 14 cups water to a boil in a large dutch oven. Add one third of gnocchi; cook for 1 1/2 mins. (Do not overcook or they will fall apart) Remove with slotted spoon putin colander to drain. Cook remaining gnocchi. Toss with butter and cheese; serve immediately.
