About Gnudi

Gnudi are Tuscan ricotta dumplings often described as ravioli filling without its pasta wrapper. This profile follows Great Italian Chefs' sage-and-brown-butter version.

Ricotta and Pecorino taste creamy and savoury, with nutmeg warmth, crisp sage, nutty browned butter and a final lift of lemon.

The dumplings are pale, plump and tender inside, with a delicate semolina skin and lightly golden butter-glossed exterior.
