How To Make Lobster Gnocchi, The Ultimate Summer Pasta

• 1 pound large, high-starch potatoes, such as russets
• 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted, plus more for dusting
• Zest of 2 lemons
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon minced shallots
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 2 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 steamed lobsters
• fine sea salt
• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
• freshly ground black pepper
• 2 cups salad greens, such as arugula, spinach, or mesclun
• 3 cups julienned or bite-size pieces assorted summer vegetables, such as zucchini, summer squash and red bell pepper

1. Place the potatoes in a saucepan and add enough water to cover.
2. Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes until a knife pierces them easily.
3. Drain and let cool for 10 minutes.
4. Carefully remove skins; the potatoes will still be hot.
5. Pass the potatoes through a food mill or potato ricer into a large bowl.
6. If you dont have a food mill or ricer, place the potatoes in a large bowl and use a potato masher to mash as smoothly as possible.
7. Do not use an electric mixer, as this will cause the potatoes to get starchy and gluey.
8. Add the flour and zest to the bowl and begin to incorporate the mixture by hand.
9. Using as little mixing as possible, combine the ingredients and lightly knead.
10. Cut off medium pieces and roll them into 1/2-inch-diameter ropes on a well-floured surface.
11. Using a sharp knife or dough cutter, cut each rope into 1/2-inch pieces.
12. Line a pan that will fit in your freezer with waxed paper or parchment paper and put the pieces on the pan.
13. If the gnocchi seem too sticky, use a little more flour.
14. Place the pan in the freezer until the gnocchi are thoroughly frozen.
15. This step can be done up to 3 days in advance.
