Using a tablespoon, scoop up a good measure of the mixture and roll into a sphere, much like making a little ricotta snowball roughly 1 1\u00e2\u0081\u201e2 inches in diameter. Place on a floured surface. Repeat until you have a whole mess of little gnudi, made in as uniform a size and shape as possible. At this point you should refrigerate the gnudi for at least a half hour before proceeding. You can also freeze them for future use. Bring a pot of salted water to a gentle boil, add the gnudi, and cook until they float to the surface. While the gnudi are gently boiling, melt the butter in a saucepan until it has foamed, the foam has subsided, and the butter starts to turn a honeyed sort of brown. Add the sage leaves and cook, stirring a bit, until super fragrant and a bit crisp. Once the gnudi is cooked, divide it among bowls and then top with the browned sage butter, with the crispy sage as a garnish. Top with a serious grating of Parmesan. Serve immediately to deafening applause from children of all ages.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yield:<\/p>\n<p>Calories:<\/p>\n<p>Fat:<\/p>\n<p>Fiber:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve recently been experimenting with variations on the gnudi from Spotted Pig restaurant in New York City.
