HOW TO MAKE POTATO GNOCCHI Three Ways! | The Positano Diaries EP 88
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ก.ย. 2024
- We were stuck inside due to bad weather so we decided to make our own potato gnocchi with three different condiments. ALL VERY EASY TO DO!!
POTATO GNOCCHI FOR 4:
1 kilo potatoes
1 egg
300g flour
boil the potatoes without peeling them.
mash them when cooked.
add flour and 1 beaten egg, also salt and pepper to taste.
knead ingredients together with your hands until a big ball is formed.
take pieces and roll into sausages, then cut them into gnocchi sized pieces.
There you have your gnocchi !
Tomato sauce:
squash a garlic clove and heat in a pan with olive oil.
add a tin of canned tomatoes and leave to simmer for 10-15 mins, add salt to taste.
add gnocchi to sauce and then mozzarella cut in cubes.
Cheese sauce:
same as any bechamel sauce, but use goats cheese and parmesan.
Pesto sauce:
buy it! (put a tiny bit of pasta water to make creamy)

This video makes me feel like I’m a family member enjoying the warmth of being with family. Thank you.
I was literally about to comment the same sentiment. I feel like a part of their family. My Family was never this kind to each other.
Same !
me too! would love to have a family like this.
@@LouiseFlynn95 I have a family like this but unfortunately they’re 5,000 km away in eastern Ontario, Canada.
Hi Gary, I'm Carlo, Thank you very much, your comment is very nice, even if unintentionally we are very pleased to make you feel at "home" like a family.❤😘
LOL, this is how I always imagined an Italian kitchen to be, lots of conversation, somewhat chaotic, crowded, but full of delicious food!
Living in paradise. Making lunch with your family who all clearly love each other. You’re living life right.
Ahhh another awesome vlog! Yum 😋, please can Carlo teach us (for us non Italian speaking people) an Italian word every vlog? in that way i can learn new Italian words and how to pronounce the word and how to use the word in a sentence🙏🏼 i think he would be brilliant 😃
Hi, I'm Carlo, Thank you very much for the comment, you're right personally I consider myself very, very lucky!😃😘
Great tip Samantha, I just have to remember to do it!😅😘
I made pizza the way Tommaso showed us and OMG it was so good.. He needs more cooking segments too, lol...I love all these videos, great to watch during our cold spell here...
I did it as well and my family loved it! We will not be buying pizza on Friday nights anymore. We did it as a family and everyone customized their pizza 🍕
Me too! I’m never cooking a pizza just in the oven again!
Wooow!! I'm Carlo, I see it worked, good job, we're glad you appreciated, Thanks a lot.😘
Yey! More cooking from Tomaso!
@@NickiPositano We appreciate all the work you're family puts into making these lovely, inspiring videos... So many of us from all over are enjoying them...Thank You
Embarrassed to say in California I just buy a bag of frozen gnocchi from Trader Joe’s with Gorgonzola sauce already added. It’s ready in 5 minutes 😜
Wonderful family project on a rainy day, looks like everyone had fun and got their favorite flavors 🇮🇹 . I hope you got lots of help with the dishes 😉
I’ve gotten the Traders gnocchi as well. It doesn’t compare to what I had in Italy, Traders is chewy and rubbery. It should be like soft pillows. I’m going to try to make it at home.
those are not even close to Italian gnocchi LOL I have lived in the US, and I could never eat Italian food unless I made it from scratch :D
@@silmuffin86 😁what time are you serving dinner?? I’ll bring the wine 😉
awww a labor of love :) Tommaso is such a good chef, he could have his own youtube channel just watching him make traditional Italian foods.
Would like to see Tomas make the Chocolates 💚 💙 ♥️ very beautiful !
😊 thank you
agree!
Would absolutely subscribe to his channel if he started one.
I love the close up on Holly while she's contemplating life haha
Holly who has no idea she is a star, 100,000+ people love her - my dog responds when she has something to say - his ears pricked up - he is listening thousands of miles away! Love It!
I was thinking the same, very arty!
I absolutely adore Carlo’s English accent. Like all things in life, the more we do it the better we are at it.
English is NOT an easy language.
Hi, I'm Carlo, Someone tells me I'm charming, so my accent must be too !! Hahaha, sorry I couldn't resist, to make fun of myself!😂😂😘
@@NickiPositano 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I JUST FOUND THIS CHANNEL AND I ENJOT BINGE WATCHING ALL YOUR VIDEOS.YOUR LIFE IS A DREAM 💜
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS FROM THE PHILIPPINES!!!
Where have you been my whole life?? Someone mentioned your channel on Rick Steve’s Facebook page and I took a look and now I’M HOOKED!!! We’re snowbound AND pandemic bound in New York so your videos are giving me LIFE! Thank you beautiful family and all your chickens too!!!
too much snow up here in pennsylvania too.
i like it when carlo talks in italian and you translate it. its very interesting to me! so hearing him talk so much was nice!
Holly is n old sole! A such a special dog! He came to you for a reason😇
I love when Carlo speaks English. He’s still 1000 times better than me trying to speak Italian, but I identify with the struggles
Nice to see more of tomasso! Seems like a really nice guy!
Your daughter is drop dead gorgeous! Fun watching you all helping to make the lunch. So lucky to have a friend that is a chef!
Tomasso is a hard-working guy. Well done Tomasso.
Now that s what I call team work! Nothing like homemade pasta and the warmth of a family around the lunch table 😊 enjoy!
Life needs to be simple, then only we can live it, otherwise it is existence. Live your life always. thank you for the videos
No no no Nicki, it's not the worst tutorial ever, it's THE BEST!!! I love this! It's a real family making a real meal and it was absolutely wonderful & fun to watch!!! 😁😁😁
You don’t know how much I can’t wait for your videos. I’m working from home so at lunchtime I get to watch your videos. Love you and your family. Sky I still love your short hair. The candies look yummy and can’t wait for the cooking lesson. Thank you for bringing us such joy and sharing your life!
It's my lunch time routine as well!
Yummy the gnocchi look mouthwatering!!! Buon apettito!
Haha, Nikki sees Carlo talking a lot in Italian and realizes she's got a lot of translating to do for the videos :)
Love the chaos, it's very Italian, in my own experience!!
Wowwwwwwwwwwwww ... Thank you for this beautiful invitation to be your guest and enjoy such a wonderful meal with you and your family Nicki ... An unforgettable meal :)
I love watching your videos and family they are very therapeutic and I feels like I’m on a journey every time! I can’t imagine that you could answer every comment nor do I expect it and I agree with Carlo you show your half of the love by doing them which I know for a fact takes time. Thank you 🙏 for opening your doors and life and giving us a peek in to such a beautiful place! 🥰
I know everyone teases you Carlo on your English but I have nothing but praise for you for keeping at it. It’s not an easy language and has so many “rules” that don’t make sense. I was not blessed with the gift of language and struggled all through school to pass my foreign language classes. I later found out I actually had a processing learning disability that made it nearly impossible for me to learn a new language and retain it. I never struggled with learning anything in my native language but throw in a new one and it was the greatest struggle. I commend you for continuing to learn and improve no matter how long it takes.
Don't worry, Nikki, it was a good tutorial and funny! Looking forward to more family-made-dishes!
I absolutely love your videos. I'm a physician healthcare worker and they bring me such joy after dark days at the hospital. I truly can't wait to visit Italy again when things open up. Thank you for all that you do! It makes a big difference in my happiness these days. You are an inspiration!!
Hi, I'm Carlo, thank you!
One of my favorite moments in culinary school was learning to make gnocchi. Making some gnocchi weekend with Bolognese. I’m very glad TH-cam recommended your channel a couple of weeks ago. I’ve binged all your videos. Keep up the great work.
Hi, I'm Carlo, Thank you very much!😘
I love Carlo and how natural he is. Just love the your whole show. It doesn't have to be perfect, it is better when it's not. I love the way you cook - real. One day you could put up all the edited pieces , they are probably gold.
Hi Chris, I'm Carlo, Thank you very much for the comment, your compliments are much appreciated and you are absolutely right, I don't like perfection, but things done at their best, I know that in some things you have to be perfect, let's think for example of a surgeon who has to do a complicated operation, in this case I don't think it would be enough to be at your best, you have to, and everything to be perfect.
So thank goodness I do another job !!
I may be cold outside but it is warm and cozy inside! What a family! I love when you all speak Italian!
🥰FABULOUS TUTORIAL Tommaso, Nicki, Carlo, Skye and Nicola. 'Carletto' cracked me up...so funny Tommaso! I loved the family theme to this vlog, WELL DONE ❣️ Much love to all five of you.
Hi Susan, thank you for your always positive and beautiful comments, if you need someone to make you "break" with laughter!😂😘
I dint understand that joke...what does it mean?
@@monicachandrashekar5159
Tommy/Tommaso called his father Carlo, "Carletto." It wasn't overly funny like a joke, but it caught me off guard/surprised me....that's all, no big deal, just a little funny and cute.
@@sjt609 thank you
@@monicachandrashekar5159
Awww, you're so welcome.
💖I hope you'll have a joyful Valentine's Day Monica. Take care.
Hahaha. I like that you asked him to chat in English (so you don't have to translate for us) Thank you so much for taking the time to translate, I'm learning Italian this way!
Poor Carlo always gets mixed up with his “some where’s” somehows, just like everyone one and everywhere!
Keeep making mistakes Carlo we love em! Hello everywhere!
Hahahaha true but his English is much better than my Italian but we keep trying 🤪🥰
Ok thank goodness, laugh about it, it's not a real problem for me, but sometimes it's embarrassing not to remember the right word, I'm terrible with my memory I apologize, but on balance it's better this way, I create more interaction when I'm wrong !!😂😂😘
I think Carlos English is amazing. Keep learning Carlo. Don't be embarrassed
Also is Chef Thomas Carlos son?
@@suenanu4648 Yes, Tommaso is Carlo's talented son.
Hi guys, there’s a fresh bread gone hard trick! I The next day when it’s as hard as a rock, wet it all over under the tap for a few seconds then pop it into a medium oven until it dries out & goes fresh again!!!!! No more wasted bread!! 👍👍👍😊
Not only....if you soak it you can use it to prepare meatballs 🍝
@@giovannacavo3262 And Bread Pudding.
What an excellent tip Nikki G! 👌
This works. Its crazy but it does!
Hello everybody! I hope you are keeping safe. This sure is a nice treat to watch. We are sitting at -47 with the wind chill. Burrrrr! Thanks for your videos they are great and keep them coming. Alberta, Calmar, Canada
wow another Alberta viewer!
I'm a Canadian in Italy and my heart goes out to you, as much as I miss Canada I don't miss those temps. My friend in Sudbury told me it was -22 there today 😓 Keep warm 😊👍🤗
@@MsBaby1959 I will stay as warm as possible. Thanks for the sympathy. Car is plugged in. lol
@@madi-maui There has to be more of us out there somewhere. lol
There's certainly a cold nip in the air, not bad if you can keep out of the wind. In Lacombe, Alberta it's -28C but with the wind it's -41C. That's actually warmer than last Sunday. When we got up it was -41 before the wind chill! 🥶
Yummy! I appreciate Carlo speaking italian and the subtitles. It helps to learn the language, the recipes are great!
To be honest, you guys put a smile on my face every time I watch your channel. If I'm having a bad day I feel much better after watching!
Just watching your beautiful family making the gnocchi was such a treat, like you we have lockdowns too and it’s so depressing, when I watch your posts it’s like a breath of fresh air I can’t say enough about them. You have a bit of magic where you are and that includes your friends and family. They all are truly wonderful each in their own way. Those two little girls are just too cute 🥰 the town of Positano the views are just stunning, the food looks so yummy and Evan when it rains it’s enchanting ,all this is possible because of you Nicki so thank you 😊 you’ve given us the best thing possible you’ve shared your magical mystical life with us. So again thank you. I believe that what you give in this world is what you get back. Blessed be. ❤️🇮🇹💋
Tommaso is a good chef! Nice family working together in the cooking!
Discovering your channel during this pandemic has been one of the few joys to come out of it. THese kind of videos from you make me wish you could adopt me as you're such a lovely family unit.
Tommaso can make chocolate, bread and gnocchi???? Where do we find a guy like him? Amazing video~
Get an asian men. He can do everything
In Positano or every where in Italy.😁
Carlo’s son is a Chef! Find yourself a chef!! 👍
@@susanlombardo8444 I'm pretty sure that's one of the main reasons my partner keeps me around ;) lol
He's very chatty too and such a lovely speaking voice even if he is hard to understand (I pick up the odd word or two but he speaks pretty fast). Thankyou Nicki for the subtitles.
Saluditos !!!!!......el paisaje esta absolutamente magnifico!!!!!!!! Bendisiones desde Arkansas 🇺🇸
Professional musician here. I love love love the music whomever pics for each segment!!! They complement the action so perfectly. Well done you! (as they say in England) Brava or bravo!
How lovely! This could become a cooking series about local and Italian food in general 💚🤍💖
Lunch today with all of you! Gnocchi making was a Sunday affair after mass. Assembly line style. Mom used to rice the potatoes, make the dough, brother and I rolled the “snakes”, cut and formed the pasta. Miss those family Sundays when relatives showed up!
You guys couldn’t get any more cuter. What a wonderfully jovial family!
Hi Scott, I'm Carlo, thank you!
Nicki Darlin, this was BEAUTIFUL!! Please thank Tomasso for explaining details to us💖. My first attempt at gnocchi was far too heavy. I will now try again. Maybe with that delicious- looking Sorrentino sauce. Just a suggestion: we would love hearing more stories from locals, like Carlo’s parents, if any would be willing to share. Fishermen, maybe? To us wanna-be Italians, what may seem ordinary to them is fascinating to us💖💗💝
Watching this at 1am and realizing we MUST have gnocchi for dinner tomorrow- with 3 sauces. Love this at-home family cooking time.
This episode is delightful. I could feel the warmth in the kitchen. 🇨🇮
I love it when the whole family is participating in the video, such a lovely vibe.
Thank you again for inviting us into your home life. so much fun cooking today and all together special monents right down to the chickens and Lily and Holly. Feeling the love for each other, food looked so fantastic! Love to all
I've watched so many of these videos that now I bother my partner by ending anything I say with "and we grow our own food." I find it very entertaining.
😆 I love all the garden / chicken footage. Fantasize about growing my own food. I then remember that I can’t even keep my little grocery store basil plant alive or pull the weeds from my flower pots! 😆. Her garden is so beautiful 🤩🍋🥬🥦🫑🍅🧅🧄🍊🍅🍳
That’s funny! I never tire of Nicki’s intro like I do some others.
I hope she never changes it. And we grow our own food. :3
Tips For Keeping Basil Fresh.
@@degunver7672 According to an online search, ... tips for keeping basil fresh, shows that if you place basil in a glass with ice water - stems only touch water, loosely cover entire basil with plastic bag that creates a greenhouse like element as basil thrives.
Enjoy watching you , your family and friends cook everyday uncomplicated foods. You have a very lovely family and may I say Carlos makes an old lady's heart beat quickly :) If his personality is as it seems on your vlogs ...you are a very blessed lady.
Awwhhh… Loved this video! Have to admit, my favourite videos are the ones when you & your lovely family are pottering about the house…. ❤
I love listening to the Italian as I am definitely learning more words with every video. I think my cooking skills have actually improved watching and learning
It's beautiful that you have all participants to get end products. My mom made gnocchi it was different I always enjoy your videos caio
I'm going through a rough time my partner is leaving me. This video made me feel warm and loved. Thank you
Wow, I've been enjoying your cooking videos more than Giada's. Such a warm feeling cooking traditionally with the simplest kitchen utensils like we do. Chef Tomas its time for your own channel. Love rainy days... from California with love.
I love this channel lot ! There is a spirit that is fun and Italian and beautiful in here. Thank you for giving us such joy and enjoyment !!
This was a terrific video! I love how you and Tommaso makes it all look so easy. My daughter Chiara is 11 and homemade gnocchi are her specialty. She even makes gluten free ones for me! We enjoyed watching your video. Thanks for sharing!
I love your video's. We love Positano. Have been there several times. Hopefully someday after covid we can visit again. Would love to meet you. My mother's family was from Bari and Positano and my dad was from Calabria. Again, thank you for your videos
Love , Love , Love- Love this family bunch ❤ gnocchi and sauces IM SURE were delicious!!! Sweet Holly , where does she sleep 💤 🐕 , her eyes evoke such sweet love 💘 . What a great chef Tomasso is !
What a warm and loving family!
And Lunch becomes Dinner :-D Love the family working in the kitchen together as well :-)
Watching this vlog ... will be the best part of this day 🥺 for me ....
Your videos make me think of my family that is in Italy. Oh how I want to travel right now!! keep the videos coming
Food always tastes better when everyone in the family gets involved in making it. Looks delicious.
Hi Nicki, I was lucky enough to discover you two months ago on a road trip. Since then I’ve watched hours a day as I cook around the clock during the winter for my family who is home during covid. I’m an Aussie expat living in Kentucky. The blue sea and the pink flowers, your vegetable garden, Holly, your gorgeous daughter and Carlos. What a smile he has. He has such a gentle joyful way about him. I look forward to your videos each day.
You mentioned last summer at a winery with your friends that you hadn’t had wine in 900:days. You might have talked about it in a video, I’m making my way through them all. But If it’s not too personal, would you talk about your decision to not drink anymore? I watch how you are cooking in the evenings, relaxing with your family, meeting friends out for drinks. You seem very relaxed and happy not drinking. I’m not a bad drinker, but I do drink in the evenings when I cook and relax. I find it so difficult to separate wine, cooking and evenings. But I’d like to stop and feel better. If these things were difficult for you, not sure that they were at all, do you have any words of wisdom as to how you got back to cooking and relaxing in the evenings, going out with friends, without it. I apologies if this is too personal a question. Thanks for all you do. I know it’s a lot of work. You’re bringing a lot of people joy.
Cheers
Heather
Hi, I'm Carlo, I know, you weren't expecting me to answer, thanks for the nice comment you wrote, and even if you weren't intrusive we don't answer personal questions, But it seemed rude to me, at least don't say Hello!
I have always loved gnocchi. I love to mix ricotta cheese and red sauce and sprinkle Italian cheese on top. You are all a very warm family. I am Italian, born in NY and grew up in Miami, Florida. My dad was a very good cook and we always had a Italian dinner on Sundays. He made the best sauce and while it was cooking we would take a piece of Italian bread and dip it in the sauce.
This was such a FABULOUS video!! so natural, unscripted, funny, heartwarming and just so much fun to watch.. You definitely made us feel like we were right there with you! It's also so nice to see everyone embracing your videos and wanting to be a part of them. You have a beautiful family, Nicki..
What a beautiful family! So much love for eachother🥰
Ciao, what a happy family session! Carlo, you sound like me learning Italian.... only much, much better better. Muffy from Oz.
I like watching you guys. It nice here Italian. I don’t understand stand anymore. My GrandMother and my Dad and his sister and Brother-in-law use to talk to my Grandmother she couldn’t speak English. So it was cool to listen them all talk. That’s how I knew a few words.
Starving now 😂
Nicki , Please don't apologise . That was a slice of your precious family life and I loved it ! There were two problems though , firstly, watching you all cook and eat made me super hungry afterwards so I had to 'force ' my daughter to make her sweet potato gnocchi ( a delicious alternative) and secondly , not enough of Hollydog ! LOL . Sending sun and love from the Canaries
I love to re-watch any videos that feature Tommaso's cooking lessons! I made his carbonara last weekend - delicious! Thanks Tommaso!
ah, I love listening to the family speak in Italian!! I concur with all the comments about the family!
Bon Appetito!! In Love with Every Moment! Infinite Thank You's! You all make the world shine brighter! Pitter patter!! ❤️
I truly loved the men taking over your channel! Great job on the gnocchi. I make my own as well and my recipe is very close. The subtitles are perfect. More family time videos, they are wonderful and make me miss my Nonna. Lots of love to you and yours.
Watching this made me feel so warm and cosy over here in drizzly, cold London. Thank you for sharing these special family moments with us, Nicki. My boyfriend and I are planning a trip to Positano as soon as travel restrictions are lifted, if I see you around I'll make sure I say hello everywhere!
Your video always tramits warm feeling in cold winter. Thank you 👍il tuo video trasmette sempre sensazioni calde nel freddo inverno👍
I really enjoyed this video. It was fun to watch the whole family together and having fun with the pasta making. The weather is very cold and some snow further north. Seeing your beautiful fennel and Savoy cabbage made me put them on my grocery list so I can make your yummy orange and fennel salad. Have a wonderful week and ciao al tutti la familia
Holly's little nose sniffing and sniffing! And now I want gnocchi too. Tommaso is a fantastic chef!
Hi Nicki, for bread try a no knead recipe and be sure to add 5 g olive oil for every 100 g flour. It will keep the bread tender and act as a preservative. Store the bread in the microwave while you are not using it. I place mine in a plastic bag, leave it open and put cut side down. It will keep for about a week without going stale. Hope that inspires you.
Bellisima giornata di cucina in famiglia… Grazie! Saluti dal Messico ♥️😊
I NEVER made Gnocchi before.
You have inspired me to have Gnocchi tonight.
Wishing Everyone a Happy Valentine’sDay! 😘
PS. Carlo, you can always practice your English with us!
I listen to Italian video’s to learn Italian. ❤️
Hi Susan, me professor ?! Nooooooooo !! let us know how your Gnocchi came out!
Wow Tommaso is so talented - Lovely family.
You make me laugh and make me happy. Perfect bilingual, bicultural, bifunny. Thank you for sharing such lovely experience with us.
It wouldn’t be an Italian tutorial if it wouldn’t be chaotic.
Still fun to watch, actually because of it.
And your family spends time together, that’s what counts.
I enjoy your videos- doing things at home and the shopping. Carlo is funny! always makes me laugh.
You have such a welcoming feeling in your home. Even tho its a video, you all seem so caring. Thank you from the U.S.
It's 9.30am on a Sunday morning and I could eat that right now ! 🇮🇹 😘
Carlo is the best! Gotta make us laugh for sure!
I have not made potato gnocchi for 25 years. Love it will surely make it soon. Thanks.
WOW! Loved it! Carlo's narration is absolutely fantastic. Adds the spunk to the video. Such a fun thing to do for a family. Nicki, Tomaso will become world famous teaching us his recipes. Look so simple and doable at home. I am going to try cooking today's dish.
I just baked your incredibly delicious banana bread and watch your positano diaries now. Thank you so much. Stay healthy. Warm greetings from Germany.
Looks like everyone had fun! All three dishes looked spectacular and delicious!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful "familia" with us. Nice community effort... loved it!
Hi, I'm Carlo, thank you! We are glad you enjoyed it!
A Lovely family video. Please give my thanks to Tommaso. His tip about boiling potatoes came in handy. I used to wonder why my potatoes came out sticky on some occasions and i realised i was cutting them before boiling. Now will definitely boil them whole !
Fun! Fun! Yum! Yum!
Great video Nicki and crew.
