Fun fact: the first time I made gnocchi, they fell apart in the water and I didn’t try to make them again until last week, 10 years later.

Yes
You mean butcher block?
Butchers block. Pretty inexpensive counter material.
Great set up

In Italian slang “gnocca” means umm... female parts and since this is ep.69 I don’t think this is unintentional...
I want to like this so bad, but there are currently 69 likes and considering this comment, I must not.
this is episode 72
@@maddoxhowerton4536 .... Watch it again. Says episode 69 in the intro.
All my favorite Italian foods have such "interesting connotations. Gnocchi and pasta puttanesca.

"This is no job for Tiny Whisk"
Well, not with that attitude it isn't
Disgruntled Cashier he was weak
He needed big whisk energy
It's not the size of the whisk, but how you USE IT!
Oh no
for 7 million, Babish should just do a compilation of him going "season with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper"
That's pretty much every video he's done - you know that, right?
Gotta throw "tiny whisk until homogeneous" in there as well
And at least five "Let those flavours get to know each other."
And a couple of his hand wiggles after he's tasted a good dish
My favorite is "cream fraiche". (pronounced like Randy Marsh)
Does anyone else just binge watch all his episodes when life is punching you in the gut with brass knuckles?
Yes! His voice is so damn soothing
Yeah I do
I used to comfort eat when i was sad, but these videos scratch the same itch
I think that's why they call it binging with babish
Life is just a long, constant, hard punch in the stomach.

The last time he used his ricer was July of 2019, KFC from stranger things was the video. The ricer may be in the same place as his food safe bucket, which has also not appeared in any video since then.

You sir have binged too much Babish.
"Gnocchi" to me means "delicious lil potato dumpling" but also "that one time I tried making my own and accidentally almost burned my house down." Yay...

Thank you for the recipe our son made it for us for Father’s Day. They were fluffy and yummy with a great Bolognese sauce I made. Our son turned us onto your channel keep on doing what you are doing! You rock!
So sweet
fun fact : babish seasons his kosher salt with kosher salt before using it
You are also here now
Kosher salt^2
But what about the salt he seasons the salt with?
Is that salted as well?
oy vey
Why I season my salt and not my meat
Idk about anyone else, but I'd love to see him make the food from American Psycho.

Yesss
like what?
There are mentions of food in dialogue, but its supposed to sound nonsensical and inedible. I only remember sea urchin saviche or something

Okay so Babish you are one of my biggest inspirations to pursue the culinary arts as a career. Proof of that is now, I'm currently panicking over poor grades in class and potentially losing my job as a cook. Just hearing the Basics theme song and remembering when I made this recipe reminded me of why I'm even doing this.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you man.
My wife is lactose-intolerant, so we do not make a lot of cheese dishes. Needless to say, I was salivating for the entire video, so I might need to treat myself.
uuuh, you do realize that most cheese usually doesn't have lactose in it? Other than say, cream cheese and cottage cheese.
Tip: If you can't toss the pan you can optionally just stir it like a sane person.
I can toss the pan! I can't guarantee that the food will still be in it afterwards though.
It’s not hard to toss a pan, just pick it up, and throw it in the air
you can, but tossing actually does something that stirring cant: incorporating air. it makes the sauce a bit thicker, a bit like whipping cream. and gnocchi can be pretty delicate so you have to be careful when stirring them. tossing is doable with a bit of practice though, use a pan with high sides and look at the forwards-back motion babish does. its good for showing off or flipping crepes.

This honestly looks like the first thing you've made that I might be able to pull off in my own basic kitchen. Potatoes, flour, eggs for the gnocchi then some sauce. awesome :)

hey you might've seen my previous comments about pooping in my pants. please help
hey Andrew thank you so much I just treated myself to the best home cooked meal of my life you are an inspirational to all I love you
Beating the egg in the shell is a huge power move
"I like big ol' gnoccs." Andrew that sentence took a couple years off my life.
It added a couple years to mine
like me some thicc gnoccs
I don't know if it added years, but it added a couple good belly laughs for me.
Under quarantine your videos are so easy to follow and i've recently expanded my culinary horizons. Thank you so much
Quite possibly the best no B.S. straight forward tutorial on any cooking subject I've ever seen.
Well done.
Could you make Lembas Bread from The Lord of the Rings. “One small bite is enough to fill the stomach of a grown man”
Cue the hobbits eating *4 full loaves each*
That would have to be a calorie dense piece of bread.
Yeah can you solve worlds hunger
the closest thing i made was 7 grains tortilla bread, that was dense, delicious and very filling
i used to make lembas bread with my brother when we were kids... it's sooo delicious. like a super dense honey flavored biscuit.

Babish with John would be a pretty interesting collaboration.
Thank you so much for making these videos. I have started working with my kids on cooking again. I asked them to find a recipe and we would get the ingredients and make it. Gnocchi with browned butter and sage is what he chose. It turned out great. We also made your beignets, which also turned out great. Thank you.
i love how he said “take that off the heat so nobody gets burned” but yet he kept the burner on directly in front of him with nothing on top of it
Can we take a moment to reflect on the fact that this man just beat an egg yolk in its shell?
It's kinda like Joe Exotic rolling up with the skeleton in the passenger seat. It's like, are you even surprised at this point?
And he didn't even use the tiny whisk
Awesome skill!
Honestly disappointed that Episode 69 of "Basics with Babish" wasn't about different ways to prepare dinner for two
That's a good joke 👍, idc who you are.

Underrated comment btw
@TheNightShadow as in to say, if you were like a stuck up school principal or PTA mom or something who might be offended by sexual jokes, even those kind of people could find that joke funny. Think Larry the Cable Guy and his stand up specials.
I was trying to make gnocchi for the first time ever for Christmas Eve dinner and this really helped me . They turned out well
fun fact: little gnocchi are called "gnocchetti" and are, in fact, a thing
for a gluten-free version, use potato starch instead of flour
This implies the existence of Spaghi™️
@@ladyofcuriousvirtue they do exist.

“Potato Piercer” was, coincidentally, one of my favorite movies.
I think I found that in the 99 cent DVD bin
Hearing Andrew say “Sauté pan” regularly after so long is weird and slightly unsettling.
That's fair, I guess. I'd love to know the right term for it if it's not too much trouble?
I am shocked that you only fried your Gnocchi for one of the variants. Frying Gnocchi elevates them to an entirely new level imo, the texture, the slight roasted potatoe flavour, its to die for.
I love gnocchi! My favorite thing to do is prepare them alongside with a poultry or red meat of choice and make a bleu cheese sauce with the meat drippings, the bleu cheese, and deglaze with a red wine. Incredible.
babish: *pronounces saute pan like a normal person*
everyone: wait, that's illegal
*_sauté pin_*
how else would you pronounce it? i'm curious
@@catalinaaraya8197 Many Americans (and some Brits) pronounce it SOH-tay rather than sor-TAY.

I made the gorgonzola version today and let me tell you, it was the best gnocchi gorgonzola I have ever had. Ever.
Thank you for this recipe, it’s now in my permanent arsenal.
Fried “ravioli” gnocchi:
Smash balls of the dough into circles with a finger (similar to the divot shape.) get two circles and place a small slice of string cheese (or other desired) in between the circles. Crimp closed, pushing out as much air as possible. Cover in a dish of bread crumbs and gently push so the crumbs stick. Pan or deep fry until golden.
I used to make gnocchi with my nonna, about 30 years ago, the memory is still so vivid in my head. Thanks for this nostalgic memory and video ❤️
I’ll bet she made some good gnocchi, I like all kinds of Italian pasta, my favorite being filled pasta, what’s yours? Aside from your nonnas gnocchi of course
thats sweet
I told my nonna that i was gay and she pulled out a bible yelling at me in italian
You're welcome
So I tried this out for dinner tonight and it came out pretty well for a guy who's never made pasta dough before!
I ended up rolling them into balls and then making the little finger dent in them.
Also I didn't have any of the sauce ingredients you mentioned so I hodge-podged something out of chopped baby bella mushrooms, chopped white onions, a quarter cup of whole milk, 3 cloves of crushed garlic, some rosemary, 3 tablespoons of butter (cuz I'm extra), some oregano, 3/4 of a cup of pasta water, and of course, KS and FGBP to taste. And it came out pretty decent along with finely sliced yellow squash and zucchini, and a couple chicken mozzarella sausages. I managed to surprise my parents (I'm a total amateur at cooking) and I'm really happy with the recipes of yours I've followed! I made your recipe for latkes last week and they came out pretty well! Thank you for making these videos! It has inspired a love of cooking in a guy who's diet in college has consisted of microwave burritos, leftovers, and hot dogs.
(And I can't believe I typed out the whole of what I did. I got a little carried away there)
What the heck are chicken mozzarella sausages?? 😂
Also if you want suggestions for sauces, mushrooms and cream is a great one and basically what you did (without the extras lol), simple tomato sauce with loads of pepper and parsley, or even just butter and parmigiano! The simpler it is, the best it will taste ♥️ also, try making gnocchi using equal parts of potatoes and pumpkin!
Lidia S. Ooh thanks for the suggestion! The chicken and mozzarella sausages were store-bought sausages. Basically picture generic chicken sausage dotted with pockets of melted mozzarella.
"I'm a total amateur at cooking"
*Nails gnocchi the first try and prepares a delicious sauce out of the blue*
Awesome! Gnocchi is one of my favorite pastas to make and also the easiest. I have a little wooden gnocchi board ($6 on Amazon) that makes the ridged kind a lot easier. And there's zero learning curve at all; you just roll a lump of dough over it and you have a great looking ridged gnocchi. It's awesome.
I made the riccota gnocchi this evening, with the browned butter sage sauce. Everything was a phenomenal 10/10! I really only wish to perfect my shaping of the dumplings. Thank you for sharing the recipe!! I was thrilled to receive your book as a gift last Christmas. After making this tonight… I look even more forward to dipping into your book.
I just tried gnocchi today and now I can officially say these are amazing
"skin covered hands" I know nothing is wrong with it, its literally correct, but idk why It just sounds so weird for me
"skin covered hands" he says, while skinning baked potatoes

Andrew already cooked outside in his red dead episode, Babish + Townsend collab when??
And Adam reguesa doesnt
07cowboy07 I knew Townsend and Babish would cross somehow, I just didn’t know when or where
I just made them! I made my own sauce with just experimenting till it tasted good. I also made them gluten free and I used an egg substitute because my friend is allergic but they still turned out really well!
Honestly, best episode ever. I've been laughing while have an urge to cook Gnocchis and try those sauces.. Congrats on a perfect video!
I'd love to see you make lobsters with lemon, basil butter, and garlic chives from Scooby-Doo and the Gourmet Ghost

Me, now: yes! More cheese! Put it on the cream sauce! We’re in this together and there’s no going back!!
Thank you for the recipe. I just made some with the browned butter and it tastes amazing.
Thank you so much for this recipe!! I followed a different recipe years ago and it was AWFUL and finally tried again with this recipe today and it was DELICIOUS!! I will be making these again and again. The gnocchi was soooo soft
This video taught me their are only 3 kinds of freaks
-parsley
-cheese

Cinnamon.
There are no nutmeg freaks, only nutmeg necromancers.
My dad bought a bag of gnocchi and told me to figure out what to do with them. After they sat in the fridge for a couple of weeks because I didn't feel like figuring out an Italian recipe I decided that since they're made from potato I'd prep them like baked potato. I boiled them for a few minutes and drained them. I baked them in an oiled pan for a bit, pulled them out, topped them with butter, baked them again. Topped the finished product with butter, sour cream, and cheddar cheese.
what did it taste like
@@sweedereed tasted like shit i'm afraid
@@sweedereed it was good. it didn't taste like a baked potato obviously but butter, sour cream and shredded cheese will make most things taste better. It's a good sharing dish.

Technically the "Gnocchi" made with ricotta cheese is "Gnudi" or "naked" a very popular dish during the winter in northern Italy and sometimes added to the tops of salads in the summer
What? Where? I'm from Milan so maybe I don't know this dish, but putting them on top of salads really weirds me out 😂 if you can tell me the recipe i'll be happy to try though!
@@elle0024 I dont have my cook book with me but my grandma's recipe is something like 500g drained ricotta, some herbs of choice and 100-200g of semolina or allP flour (depending on preference), the goal is to add just enough flour so it doesn't stick to your hands. Roll it into golf-ball sized balls and freeze for 20 mins; then boil until they float
Khan uhhh gnocchi is made with potato I don’t know where you are from but it’s not made from ricotta
@@frittaafl2186 did you read my comment??? thats what I said, Babish shows how to make "gnocchi" with ricotta later in the video, when really it is "Gnudi"
I know I'm always WAAAAAAAAAAAAAy behind on commenting on these videos, but I still love the way you do your voice overs, and I can't decide if you're just always winging it line by line, or writing and editing before hand - or if it just comes naturally because it's the way you are. Either way I love your snappy repartee (which may or may not be an accurate use of the word as you're not really talking WITH anybody else - but I just don't care).
I followed your method and technique. It came out perfect, nice job and thanks for sharing.

This sounds AMAZING

I made gnoicchi with my sister a month before she went to college the whole time we were talking about all the things she was going to do and it is still one of my favorite memories so seeing this video brings back memories!
These look surprisingly easy. I very vividly remember my dad talking about his mom making gnocchi at home, and how it was a huge process that took all day. Granted, this was in the ‘40’s, but I imagined something so complicated, I never even looked into making them. Thanks for the inspiration!
I wonder if she made a large quantity and then preserved some to use for later?

"Another method for making this strange food that you thought you were just starting to understand is by using a completely different set of ingredients."
i tried this and it went p well! the brown butter sage sauce was extremely good. i would maybe recommend refrigerating the kneaded dough for a little bit before shaping bc it makes it easier to shape. def freeze the gnocchi if you're not going to cook them right away - i put mine in the fridge to cook the next day and they oxidized overnight and turned a little gray :( they still tasted fantastic tho!
