Instructions
For Parisian Gnocchi In a non-reactive sauce pot, add water, butter and 1 teaspoon salt.
Heat at medium-high. Once mixture comes to a simmer, turn heat down to medium and add flour all at once. Stir rapidly and consistently with a wooden spoon, until the dough pulls away from the sides and the bottom of the pan is clean with no dough sticking to it. The dough should be glossy and smooth. Turn off heat and continue to stir rapidly for 5 minutes, evaporating moisture fromthe dough. Immediately transfer the dough to an electric mixer with a paddle attachment.
Add 1 teaspoon salt, Dijon mustard, chopped herbs and ground fennel seed.
Add 3 large eggs, one at a time, beating between low and medium, waiting for each egg to be completely incorporated before adding the next one. When the dough is cohesive, place into a pastry bag with a 5/8-inch plain round tip. Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a simmer. Holding the pastry bag over the edge of the pot of water, squeeze bag and cut dough into 1-inch dumplings with a paring knife. Allow pieces to fall directly into the water. Work in batches of 15-20 pieces. When the gnocchi float to the surface, allow to poach for 2 more minutes. Then remove pieces with a slotted spoon or strainer to a well-oiled baking sheet. Taste one for desired tenderness before continuing. When all of the gnocchi are finished poaching, cool in refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Cover until ready to use.
