    Now on my way from Rome to Positano, Ya gotta take a train from Rome to Naples, the pizza capitol of the world. Then from Naples, you need to get to a place called Sorrento. Just off the coast of Sorrento is the island of Capri, and if you drive around the coast line of the Sorrentine peninsula, then you’ll run into the famed Amalfi coast. But on that journey, there is a very good reason to stop in sorrento. I’m talking about gnocchi alla sorrentina, soft pillowy gnocchi, in sweet tomato sauce, tossed in fresh fior di latte or bufala mozzarella and baked to a bubbly, cheesey perfection. Its one of those simple yet spectacular Italian dishes and that’s what we’re going to make today.

    The Italian cuisine makes us realize just this that it only takes a couple of things, good and genuine ingredients, chosen and combined with taste, to make a wonderful dish. You don't need to do the elaborate things to make a delicious dish. And this is precisely why Italian cuisine has become famous all over the world. The simplicity of the dishes but made with taste and love.

      @@gobbidimerda1 Vabbè, ma quello poi si sa che il “classico italiano” è portato a criticare un po’ tutto e dappertutto, indipendentemente da chi cucina o dal canale. Possono anche essere cuochi italiani stellati (anzi noto che neanche per quelli la critica manca mai, perché spesso stravolgono certi piatti italiani, ceti classici italiani). Noi potremmo vedere anche il piatto più perfetto, ma c’è poi sempre qualcuno che va a cercare il cosiddetto “pelo nell’uovo”.

    Looks delicious. A few comments for those watching if you are aiming for super authentic:
    - in Sorrento you’ll find the gnocchi are generally smaller than in this video, maybe a cubic centimeter or slightly larger.
    - they don’t use garlic in their sauces (though I personally love garlic, when used sparingly)
    - they generally only use egg yolk for this dough
    - 00 flour is preferred
    - it’s pretty difficult to over knead gnocchi dough, add flour a little at a time and only stop when the dough is barely tacky when you squeeze it hard. The amount of flour will vary person to person depending on your potato water content and size of eggs
    - I have found the actual dish served in restaurants in Sorrento is like how it comes out of the pan at 10:40 on a flat plate rather than baking it in a dish like a parmigiana, but that’s probably a matter of preference.
    That said I’ve found residents of Sorrento even make classic dishes like eggplant parmigiana a little differently so the term “traditional” is very vague.
    Delicious dish!

  • @profchaos9001
    @profchaos9001 Před rokem +11

    It is better to use just the yolk, not the whole egg. The egg white adds a lot of moisture that as you said needs to be avoided. This way it is easy to use just 1/4 of flour in weight compared to potato. We dont use cups because they dont make sense to us, so with 1kg of potatoes (1000 grams) you can use just 250g of flour.

A saying referring to the lords of the city who had peasants working for them and bringing to the lords' castle the stuff they gathered in the fields and what they produced for the lords.

      Then you will have a chance to eat an original dish of Gnocchi alla Sorrentina. Of course, there is nothing more interesting and fascinating than eating a dish there where it is born. This example also applies when one eats a Carbonara directly in Rome or a Pizza directly in Naples. My advice, (as an Italian who by the way comes right from the Amalfi Coast area, in the region of Campania, where you are going) is always to eat the classic local dish of the city or area where one is.
      I wish you a good stay and enjoyment in my beautiful region with lots of good food ! 😊

    Giant Super Gnocchi!! You can typically just make tiny pearls of mozzarella with your fingers the size of a pea. They melt in the hot sauce. So you can skip the baking step. Fresh Gnocchi takes two seconds to cook, so the baking step isn't needed.
    The best sauce for Gnocchi is a pink sauce with a heavy cream....followed by a nice cheesy Vodka sauce.
