Gnocchi Verdi 2 Preparation

>From James Beard”s _Beard_on_Pasta (Alfred A. Knopf 1983): In saucepan, combine spinach, salt, pepper, nutmeg, butter and ricotta over low heat. Stir for 5 minutes to dry mixture out. Remove from heat and beat in eggs, parmesan cheese, and flour. Set dough aside to cool for 2 hours. Dust your hands and a board with flour. Pull off walnut-size pieces of dough and form cork-shaped croquettes. Roll each croquette in flour. When you have used up all of the dough, drop the gnocchi into *gently* simmering water. (Don”t let the water boil or the gnocchi may fall apart.) When they rise to the surface of the water, they”re done. Remove them with a slotted spoon. Put them in a buttered baking dish. Beard suggests pouring 1/2 cup melted butter over the gnocchi, sprinkling 1/2 grated parmesan on top, and heating in a 350 degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
