You may have spent time wondering what’s the best gnocchi sauce. Well, the great thing about gnocchi is that it’s versatile, so finding the best dipping sauce to go with it is often just a matter of trying out what you already like! But, one thing for sure, is that when it comes to hummus, gnocchi has got itself a fantastic match. Here’s why:
Hummus is savoury, tangy and garlicky. It also has a smooth texture that’s rich and creamy and easy to spread or be scooped up by handheld foods. That’s why Gnocchi Stix makes such a perfect pairing for this loveable paste! Once you dip those stick-shaped gnocchi treats into some hummus and scoop it up for a bite, you’ll know why these two ingredients make an easy home dish that everyone will love in no time!
If you’re also a meat lover, try bringing the texture and flavours of gnocchi together with something delicious and meaty, as in this Gnocchi Skillet Nachos recipe. This is one of those meals that works wonders when the family are spending time together for movie night and want a tasty and comforting dish to share and enjoy. But perhaps, on the other hand, you would prefer something lighter, more refreshing and vegetarian friendly? Again, gnocchi will not let you down! Just try out Cheese-Filled Skillet Gnocchi With a Creamy Pesto Dip, rich and herbaceous in taste, this dish makes a highly satisfying appetizer or main that’s also great for sharing.
