Pillow Talk: Make Gnocchi Like a Pro
Fluffy, pillowy, and deeply satisfying—this month’s Cooking with Doctorbird class is all about handmade gnocchi. Chef Danielle will guide you through every step, from kneading dough to shaping each little dumpling, then we’ll dress them up with peak-summer flavors: sweet Brentwood corn, juicy cherry tomatoes, and fragrant basil.

🍴 What You’ll Learn

• How to make gnocchi dough from scratch using simple ingredients

• Tips for rolling, cutting, and shaping gnocchi for perfect texture

• How to build a seasonal sauté that balances sweetness, acidity, and herbs

• Cooking techniques to avoid sticky, gummy, or overly dense gnocchi

• Plating and pairing ideas for summer-friendly pasta nights

🌽 Why This Class is for You
If you’ve only ever made gnocchi from a vacuum-sealed bag, this is your chance to upgrade. It’s a hands-on, pasta-filled afternoon that’s equal parts educational and delicious—and yes, you’ll enjoy a complimentary glass of wine while you cook.
