HELPFUL HINTS
- Gnudi can be described as the filling for ravioli without the pasta, i.e., "nude." They are similar to gnocchi made with Ricotta cheese instead of mashed potato.
- Frozen peas can be used; cook according to package directions using the minimum time specified.
- If fresh chanterelle mushrooms are not available, rehydrate dried chanterelles according to package directions. 2 oz. dried = 2 cups rehydrated.
- Other fresh, woodsy mushrooms can be used instead of chanterelles, such as crimini or shitake.
