I did have to add a lót of flower to make the balls sturdy enough as they were really liquid-y, but this was so tasty! Although my gnudi wasn't half as green nor round as yours, I really enjoyed this and would definitely make it again.
Don't know if I read over some notes, but I had to guess how many portions this would come out to. Eventually it was just too little for dinner for two people, in my opinion.
Sorry to hear you had to add more flour. I’ve made this recipe a bunch of times, and the gnudi have never turned out too liquid-y. Did you make sure to drain the ricotta well and really squeeze all the water out of the spinach? If so, maybe my egg was a bit smaller than yours?
As for the shape, I think it’s just a matter of practice to get them round. Don’t stress if they’re not perfect – they’ll still taste amazing!
About the color - if they weren’t as green as mine, did you blanch the spinach and immediately transfer it to ice-cold water to lock in the colour? That could help keep them vibrant.
