Gnocchi with Mushrooms and Gorgonzola Sauce
The earthy flavor of mushrooms is offset by a luscious Gorgonzola cheese sauce. It is important not to substitute another type of blue cheese in this dish; the creamy quality of genuine Gorgonzola is necessary for the best results.

Cook's Notes
The trick to making these light, fine-textured Italian dumplings is to avoid overworking the potatoes when pureeing and the dough when mixing and kneading. A potato ricer or food mill will produce the fluffiest results; a food processor should never be used, as it will make the potatoes gluey.
