'''Gnudi''' are a type of Italian dumpling made with ricotta cheese and semolina flour. The name "gnudi" comes from the Tuscan word for "naked," as they are essentially "naked" ravioli, consisting of the filling without the pasta shell.

==Ingredients and Preparation==
Gnudi are primarily made from [[ricotta]] cheese, which is mixed with [[semolina]] flour to form a dough. The dough is then shaped into small balls or ovals. Some recipes may include [[spinach]], [[Parmesan cheese]], or [[nutmeg]] for added flavor.

===Cooking Method===
The gnudi are typically boiled in salted water until they float to the surface, indicating they are cooked through. They can be served with a variety of sauces, such as a simple [[butter]] and [[sage]] sauce, [[tomato sauce]], or a [[cream sauce]].

==Culinary Context==
Gnudi are a traditional dish from the [[Tuscany|Tuscan]] region of [[Italy]]. They are similar to [[gnocchi]], but are lighter and more delicate due to the use of ricotta instead of [[potato]].

==Serving Suggestions==
Gnudi can be served as a [[primo piatto]] (first course) in a traditional Italian meal. They pair well with a light [[white wine]] or a crisp [[salad]].
