It’s actually not considered a pasta, but a dumpling (“gnocco” means dumpling), and is usually served before a meat or fish course. The Sacchi Tartufi Gnocchi al Tartufo is light and pillowy, with a firm but chewy texture when cooked properly. Sacchi Tartufi has also added bits of truffle to their gnocchi, which adds a pleasant earthy, nutty flavor to it.
