Gnocchi Night!

Last Thursday, Anna Rita taught our entire class how to make her famous potato gnocchi. Everyone got a chance to work with the dough whether it was kneading it, rolling it into sections, or cutting it into bite size dumplings; and in addition to learning how to make gnocchi…we got to eat it!

There were a variety of sauces that Anna Rita prepared for us, and by the end of the night, we were all stuffed. The meal was absolutely delicious and those who were lucky got to snag some left-overs for the next day. My personal favorite was the butter with sage and the pumpkin sauce; but there was also bolognese, swordfish with olives and tomatoes, asparagus with nuts, and some frittatas and desserts on the side.

Let’s just say I couldn’t move for a few hours afterwards…

Here are some photos from the night… Enjoy!
