Let me know how they turn out, ok?<br /><br />~~~~~~~<br /><br />Franco~<br />Egg yolk in gnocchi dough is definitely not cheating. I tried making them without once and they fell apart completely in the boiling water... also, the potatoes have to be floury and possibly old, do you agree? And yes, I like my gnocchi golden, not pale white.<br /><br />Happy gnocchi-ing a tutti!Eleonora Baldwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06746184664869196394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575499172466966020.post-20430388358242220432010-10-31T03:49:55.078+01:002010-10-31T03:49:55.078+01:00What a great primer on making gnocchi di patate!

Love how we're thinking in synch... must be the Amalfi coast connection. :-) I've been contemplating making gnocchi for the first time over the past week, and my Mom and I tackled it last Sunday. We had a blast... and it wasn't all that hard at all. Especially with two people. We did a recipe and process very similar to yours, and made gnocchi alla sorrentina... YUM!

There a...Alessandra~<br />thanks for stopping by again.<br /><br />There are 3 types of codes you can use to upload your a-store. If you use the plain Html code, you need to do what I did, and that is direct your readers via a hyperlink to another separate page (the actual store).<br />If you want to copy it in your Pages link list, you need to use another one, I think option 2. That will only allow you to upload it as a clickable image, and it will not be therefore interactive, like you won't be able to link to its individual sections, categories, etc.<br />But I suggest you seek an expert's advice before messing with code. <br /><br />Ciao<br />E.Eleonora Baldwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06746184664869196394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3575499172466966020.post-65097923233199475052010-10-24T21:30:12.057+02:002010-10-24T21:30:12.057+02:00Ciao!

I tried putting mine as a page but part of my a-store is cut off. How to you make it full? I just copied & pasted my html code in my page. <br /><br />I see you have a link that says "Click here" with the link attached with it.
