Rustichella d’Abruzzo Gnocchi di Patate are traditional Italian potato dumplings produced in Abruzzo using a carefully balanced recipe that combines potatoes with high-quality flours. Known for their artisanal approach, Rustichella d’Abruzzo creates gnocchi that deliver both authentic flavor and consistent texture.
These gnocchi are made with a base of rehydrated potatoes (70%), combined with soft wheat flour and a small addition of durum wheat semolina (5%), which gives them a slightly more structured texture compared to traditional recipes. This added semolina helps the gnocchi hold their shape better during cooking while remaining soft and tender inside.
The result is a gnocchi that is light, smooth, and full-bodied, offering a satisfying bite without being overly dense.
