Collected Foods kitchen recipe.

Umami Fresh Pasta or Gnocchi Dough: Deep savory notes for pasta night or a simple bowl. Collected Foods Umami is the flavor driver.

Serves: 4

Why this spice: A little umami powder in fresh pasta or gnocchi dough whispers mushroom in every bite.

Ingredients

• 2 cups (250 g) 00 or all-purpose flour
• 3 large eggs
• 1 1/2 tsp Collected Foods Umami Mushroom Powder
• Pinch salt
• For gnocchi option: 1 lb riced potato + 1 egg + 1 cup flour + 1 tsp umami powder

Directions

1. Pasta: mound flour with salt and umami powder; make a well, add eggs, and knead until smooth. Rest 30 minutes; roll and cut.
2. Gnocchi: mix riced potato, egg, flour, and umami powder lightly; roll ropes and cut pillows.
3. Boil in salted water until they float (gnocchi) or 2–3 minutes (fresh pasta).
4. Sauce simply with butter, sage, and Parmesan so the mushroom note shows.
5. Taste and adjust salt or spice before serving.
