Comfort Size Tofu Gnocchi with Burst Tomatoes

Ingredients

  • 1-1/3 cups flour (can sub with gluten-free mix)
  • 1-1/4 tsp tapioca starch (or arrow root/corn starch)
  • 3/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1-14oz pack silken tofu
  • Olive oil (for cooking)

Preparation

  1. Whisk together 1-1/3 cups flour, 1-1/4 tsp tapioca starch, 3/4 tsp salt, and 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp nutritional yeast.

  2. Add 1-14oz pack silken tofu to the flour mixture and use a fork to gently incorporate.

  3. Dust hands with flour and gently press the mixture together to form dough (dough should be sticky; do not knead too much or gnocchi will be tough).

  4. Dust a cutting board generously with flour and divide the dough into 8 roughly equal pieces.

  5. Roll each piece into a log shape about 3/4 inch in diameter.

  6. Dust a sharp knife with flour and cut each log into about 1-1/4 inch pieces (should look like little pillows).

  7. Cook the gnocchi in boiling water until they rise to the surface, then remove with a slotted spoon.

  8. Alternatively, heat a little olive oil in a non-stick pan and sauté the gnocchi on medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until slightly browned.
