Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Flour a flat surface thoroughly for rolling out the dough. Roll sections of the dough into long thin lines. Cut the rounded sections into one-inch pieces.
Meanwhile, fill a large pot with water and add salt. Bring to boil.
Once the water is boiling add the gnocchi carefully all at once to the pot. (See video for live demonstration)
