Gnudi (Italian pronunciation: [ˈɲuːdi]) are gnocchi-like dumplings made with ricotta cheese instead of potato,[1] with semolina.[2][3] The result is often a lighter, "pillowy" dish, unlike the often denser, chewier gnocchi.[4] Gnudi is the Tuscan word for "naked" (in standard Italian "nudi"),[5] the idea being that these "pillowy" balls of ricotta and spinach (sometimes without spinach, which is also known as ricotta gnocchi) are "nude ravioli", consisting of just the tasty filling without the pasta shell.[6][7] By tradition, in Tuscany, these dumplings are served with burnt butter and sage sauce, sprinkled with Parmigiano or Pecorino Toscano cheese.[8][9][10][11]
