1 pound large, high-starch potatoes, such as russets
2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted, plus more for dusting
Zest of 2 lemons
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced shallots
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 steamed lobsters
fine sea salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
freshly ground black pepper
2 cups salad greens, such as arugula, spinach, or mesclun
3 cups julienned or bite-size pieces assorted summer vegetables, such as zucchini, summer squash and red bell pepper

1
Place the potatoes in a saucepan and add enough water to cover.
2
Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes until a knife pierces them easily.
3
Drain and let cool for 10 minutes.
4
Carefully remove skins; the potatoes will still be hot.
5
Pass the potatoes through a food mill or potato ricer into a large bowl.
6
If you dont have a food mill or ricer, place the potatoes in a large bowl and use a potato masher to mash as smoothly as possible.
7
Do not use an electric mixer, as this will cause the potatoes to get starchy and gluey.
8
Add the flour and zest to the bowl and begin to incorporate the mixture by hand.
9
Using as little mixing as possible, combine the ingredients and lightly knead.
10
Cut off medium pieces and roll them into 1/2-inch-diameter ropes on a well-floured surface.
11
Using a sharp knife or dough cutter, cut each rope into 1/2-inch pieces.
12
Line a pan that will fit in your freezer with waxed paper or parchment paper and put the pieces on the pan.
13
If the gnocchi seem too sticky, use a little more flour.
14
Place the pan in the freezer until the gnocchi are thoroughly frozen.
15
This step can be done up to 3 days in advance.
