Ingredients:

Serving

2 lbs ricotta cheese ( save container)
2 lbs flour ( fill ricotta container)
2 eggs
tomato sauce , for serving
parmigiano-reggiano cheese , for serving

Directions:

Mix ingredients.
Knead dough in bowl until it comes away from the sides.
Divide into 4 balls.
Let sit for 30 minutes.
Using a floured board, take one ball out and cut into long strips and then into one inch pieces.
Press middle of each piece with 2 fingers - rolling a bit toward yourself - to curl gnocchi.
Place on cookie sheet to dry slightly.
Place in boiling, salted water for a couple of minutes to cook.
You know they are done when they float.
Serve with tomato sauce and grated cheese.
Tip: my mom used to freeze them before cooking because she thought they retained their shape better.
