Ingredients
  • 1 bag (26 ounces) Idahoan® CREAMY Classic Mashed Potatoes (cold water preparation as
    detailed below)
  • 1 gallon cold water
  • 1 quart pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
  • 8 ounces pumpkin pie spice blend
  • 20 each whole eggs (cracked and whisked to combine, held for assembly)
  • 20 pounds plain flour (more may be needed depending on hydration)
Instructions
  1. Measure 1-gallon water. Add the pumpkin puree and spices to the water and whisk well.
  2. Add entire pouch of potatoes all at once, using a wire whip to distribute evenly and wet
    all potatoes. Let stand 1 minute until the potatoes are fully hydrated.
  3. Place the whisked eggs in a stand mixer, add the hydrated potatoes (if prepared hot the
    potatoes must be cooled completely), and mix on low until combined.
  4. Once the potato and egg mixture is combined, slowly add the flour until all of the flour
    is fully hydrated, and mix completely. Remove from mixer and allow to rest five minutes.
  5. After the dough has rested, form the gnocchi pieces by rolling dough into a cylinder
    shape (approximately ¾” in diameter), and then cutting into ¾” pieces. For authentic-looking gnocchi, you
    can create ridges by using the back of a fork or a gnocchi paddle.
  6. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and add the prepared gnocchi (salted water can be
    used, depending on the desired finished dish). Boil the gnocchi until it floats.
  7. Suggested serving with a creamy white wine brie sauce and crispy prosciutto.
