I added a little zested lemon peel, 2 tablespoons of chopped,capers, and some toasted pine nuts to the gnocchi dish. It was excellent.

How do you store the first pastry between making and serving? What if you have leftovers will they hold up in the fridge?

[@frankpeter6851]

Why not? But I would freeze the pastry and custard mix separately. Then I would thaw and fill.

[@Graycy808]

Yeah... definitely should not watch when you're already hungry! I'm looking in my fridge to see if I've got what I need, lol. Dangerous to make it look so easy!

[@evelynwald9132]

Both look easy & delicious! Thanks for sharing.

[@jenniferestes5293]

What is the difference between pastry cream, custard, & pudding? And can you use them interchangeably?

[@erikawanner7355]

I’m not a chef but I think it’s about the thickener used… I want to say pudding doesn’t use eggs but cornstarch…. But again I’m not a chef.
I think they can be used somewhat interchangeably in a pinch

[@st.godlessness]

pastry cream: uses starch to thicken
custard: uses eggs to thicken
pudding: uses gelatin or starch to thicken

[@jekku4688]

it all looks DELISH!!! But I thought gnocci was made with potatoes??? No matter, I'd eat Bridgette's version ANY day!

[@midnightfairy58]

Me too! LOL😂

[@scott_forgot9875]

The ingredients are so simple but the technique is next level

[@lisabishop6266]

I am not sure of the difference. My Gram always made pastry cream. I am lazy and use instant pudding 😂

[@FishareFriendsNotFood972]

This is dangerous knowledge to give me, lolol

[@JA51711]

[@DogOfWar1230]
