2
Put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix them well. When they are well combined put the mixture on a board and knead well, adding the extra flour until the dough stops sticking to your hands. Do not put too much flour though or your gnocchi will become chewy. Divide the dough in 8 to 10 balls. Roll each ball of dough using your fingertips into ropes about 2 cm (3/4 inch) thick. Then cut the ropes of dough into 2.5 cm (1 inch) pieces and place them on a floured tray.", "Butter and sage sauce:

Brown 2 ounces of butter with the sage leaves in a frying pan on low to medium heat.", "Gorgonzola and pistachios sauce:
