Playdough Gnocchi (Recipe)

Here's our entry for Hay Hay Its Donna Day's Gnocchi Contest. Mini-me and I have been working on these every morning since before we knew there was a contest, so of course we had to enter them. Does anyone have a sauce suggestion? The texture is ultra-smooth and they are oh so salty.

Playdough Gnocchi
Serves 2 (1 grownup and 1 munchkin)

Take 1 large container of playdough (homemade or store bought), and roll out into 3/4" wide ropes. We like to use all the colors kneaded to a nice neutral, but if you prefer primaries I'll understand.
Cut into 1" lengths.
Hold a kitchen fork tines down on a table, with the back towards you. Take each gnocchi, and using your thumb, roll it down the fork to create the ridges, and press in to create an indentation on the opposite side.
Place on a non-breakable plate and serve immediately!

Made these tonight. Yum! I used canned refried pinto beans instead of black beans, just because that's what I had. The bocoles came out a little lighter colored than yours, but both my veget ...

I've never heard of anything about acidic sauces darkening in iron pans, but I do know that the more acidic a food is, the more iron it will absorb. It's a great way to add iron to your die ...

The whole "distributes heat evenly" stuff is, of course, a crock, as you point out. The heat equation applies, even if the pot came from your grandma. :)

Your cast iron skillet looks like the exact one my parents have, been in use for 40+ years too. Made to last forever. I love my cast iron griddle, Dutch oven and skillet too. Perfect for blackened ...
