I saw a package of gonochi in the store awhile back. I had never seen gonochi before so I bought it and made a soup. I can’t say I liked it. To me it was like eating a little rubber ball. lol
Gnocchi has to be cooked juuuust right. It’s not terribly full of flavor, as it’s just potato and flour, but it picks up other flavors. It sounds like yours wasn’t cooked enough, but maybe not.
I had a friend that loved gnocchi so much she would talk about it every time she made it. Her eyes would closed and she tell us it was like eating little pillows from heaven, melting on your tongue. Lol - she was a little strange.
I’ve only ever had it with sauce, just like pasta. Then it’s pretty good....but not like little pillows from heaven lol.

Well there is a huge difference between homemade gnocchi and that prepackaged stuff. I use it in the soup because it doesn’t fall apart like the homemade softer pillows might. And the soup is kind of thick so it goes ok.
