Instructions

Bake the potatoes at 400°F for about 1 hour. Use a fork to check if they are cooked. If the fork easily pierces through, they are done. Allow them to cool enough to be able to handle them.
Cut the potatoes in half and spoon out the inside. Run the scooped potato through a ricer or a grater. Allow the potato to further cool.
Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl. Drizzle the egg mixture over the potatoes.
Mix the salt into the flour and sprinkle it over the potatoes. Work the dough just enough to combine everything together.
Cut off a small piece of dough and roll it into a rope (about ½ inch thick). On a well-floured surface, cut the rope into half-inch sized pieces. Take each piece and roll it down with the tines of a well-floured fork.
Bring a pot of water to boil. Add the gnocchi to the water, stirring occasionally to prevent them from sticking together. Cook until the gnocchi float to the top. Serve with your favorite pasta sauce or butter.
