Preheat oven to 400u00b0F.

2
Poke a few holes in each potato and spread the potatoes out on a baking sheet. Bake until potatoes are cooked, about 1 hour (maybe a little longer)
-
3
As soon as the potatoes are cool a bit (still very warm) scoop out the inside and peel away skin (this is easier to do when they are warm) . Mash potatoes. Spread the potatoes onto a clean, cool, lightly floured surface.

4
Whisk together the eggs and salt together and pour on top of potatoes. Sprinkle 1 cup of the flour over the eggs, work the ingredients together (I used a scraper thing), cutting into them and then pile together. keeping adding a little extra flour to reduce stickiness.

5
When the mixture holds together, knead briefly, continuing to flour the work surface to prevent sticking . As soon as the dough is smooth and holds together, stop kneading and shape it into a thick log.

Working with 1/4 of the dough at a time, roll the dough into long ropes. Then cut them into 1-inch-long pieces. Optionally, form ridges on the gnocchi using a dinner fork ( i looked up some YouTube tips and demos). Transfer the gnocchi to a lightly floured baking sheet while rolling out remaining dough.

Boil a large pot of water, add a generous pinch of salt, and boil the gnocchi in small batches until they float. With a slotted spoon, remove the gnocchi and spread on a baking sheet.
