Cooking Tips

• Make sure to use a large pot of boiling water to cook the gnocchi, as they can stick together if overcrowded.
• To achieve a nice browned butter, be careful not to burn it. Keep an eye on the butter as it melts and turns golden.
• For an extra flavor boost, you can toast the gnocchi in a separate pan before tossing them with the browned butter and sage.

Storage and Serving

• Taro gnocchi is best served immediately after cooking, as they can become gummy if left to sit for too long.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, gently sauté the gnocchi in a pan with a little butter until heated through.
