GNOCCHI FEST: In Progress ii


Oops! Forgot to take any good pictures of the finished products! We were so hungry by then, we just chowed right down. We topped the gnocchi with a browned butter sauce, to which we added pine nuts, sage straight from the garden, freshly grated nutmeg, and lots of Parmigiano Regiano. Our side dish was Zucchini Carpaccio, drizzled with lemon juice and olive oil, scattered with mint and thick curls of Parmigiano. And those four empty bowls? They held almond panna cotta topped by peaches from a tree in Outdoor Woman Muse's own garden. We didn't like it at all...

P.S. By the way, that's Outdoor Woman (our hiking, kayaking, caving, animal-loving and chicken-raising muse) who did the mixing, tasting and snake-forming. On the left at the shaping table is Fiber Woman (also known as Mini Muse) who is our bonafide, full-time artist and maker of all things fabulous from fiber. On the right is Wisdom Woman, our vision-questing, Wisdom U.-attending, and Harley-riding Muse. And of course, that's me at the sink - Wordy Woman.
