Mamma Emma Potato Mini Gnocchi Chicche are small, soft potato gnocchi made with fresh steamed potatoes (with the peel), wheat flour, eggs, and salt, following a traditional Italian recipe. Their small size makes them cook quickly and hold sauces beautifully, making them a versatile option for many dishes.
Mamma Emma is known for producing gnocchi made from fresh steamed potatoes instead of potato flakes, which gives their gnocchi a softer texture and a more authentic homemade flavor. The name “chicche” in Italian refers to small dumplings or little bites, and these mini gnocchi are inspired by traditional homemade gnocchi that were rolled and shaped by hand.
Because of their small size, these mini gnocchi are perfect for lighter sauces and quick meals.
They are especially well suited for:
• Tomato sauce
• Pesto
• Butter and parmesan
• Cream sauces
• Olive oil and herbs
• Vegetable sauces
• Pancetta or sausage
• Baked gnocchi dishes
Soft, delicate, and quick to cook, these mini potato gnocchi are inspired by traditional homemade Italian gnocchi and are perfect for simple, comforting Italian meals.
