Pumpkin and Ricotta Gnocchi: A Comforting Italian Delight

/in /by

There’s something truly satisfying about a dish that balances simplicity with richness, and our pumpkin and ricotta stuffed gnocchi does exactly that. Crafted with care, this Italian specialty delivers a velvety texture and a delicate bite that makes each mouthful memorable.

What sets this gnocchi apart is its thoughtfully developed structure. The filling combines the sweetness of pumpkin with the creamy depth of ricotta, encased in pasta made from premium durum wheat semolina, free-range eggs, and a touch of virgin olive oil. The result is a dough that offers a subtle, satisfying flavour and a texture that holds together beautifully in cooking.

But the real magic lies in the way the flavour is sealed in. During preparation, herbs, spices, and vegetables are carefully blended and locked into the filling. This ensures that the flavour remains vibrant and intact, even after boiling. You won’t lose any of that well-rounded taste to the water.

One of the best things about this gnocchi is its convenience. It’s ready in just 4 to 6 minutes, making it a perfect choice for quick weeknight dinners or special weekend meals.

Here are a few ideas to enjoy it:

  • Simple Butter Sage Sauce Melt butter in a pan, add fresh sage leaves, and gently fry until aromatic. Toss the cooked gnocchi in the sauce and finish with a sprinkle of grated parmesan.
  • Light Tomato and Basil For a fresher profile, use a light tomato sauce with fresh basil. The acidity of the tomato balances the sweetness of the pumpkin beautifully.
  • Creamy Walnut Sauce Pair it with a creamy walnut sauce for a rich and nutty complement to the soft filling. This combination makes a comforting and satisfying main course.

With its quick preparation and gourmet flavour, our pumpkin and ricotta gnocchi makes it easy to bring authentic Italian comfort food to your table. Whether you’re cooking for yourself or serving guests, this is a dish that delivers both elegance and ease.
