Notes

Leftovers will keep in the fridge for about 3-4 days in an airtight container. For longer storage, freeze for up to 2 months and reheat gently to avoid rubbery gnocchi. Timing is key to achieving the best texture for gnocchi. Ingredient substitutions include using ricotta instead of feta or coconut cream for a vegan option.
