Homemade Gnocchi (Potato Dough Pasta)

List of Ingredients




1 1/2 # Mealy Potatoes (4 Lg)
2 Unbeaten Eggs
2 1/2 C Flour

Recipe



Peel, boil, drain and mash Potatoes. Measure out 3 C. Add Eggs, mixing well. Add Flour and mix. Remove to heavily floured board or surface and knead until smooth, adding more Flour if necessary.
Roll to 1/4" thickness by 4" wide. Cut into 1/4 - 1/2" strips. Cut strips into 3/4" pieces. Sprinkle with Flour and press with back of fork to flatten center slightly.
Allow to dry 1 hour.
Cook in boiling, salted water until tender, 10 minutes or so, stirring occasionally.
Drain and serve with your favorite Tomato Sauce and freshly grated Romano Cheese.

This is a heavy, chewy Pasta. A crisp green Salad would top this meal off nicely. Add Meatballs on the side, if you're so inclined.
