Gnocchi In Pumpkin Sauce, From Nyt

• 4 cups whole wheat gnocchi
• 1 1/2 cups pureed pumpkin
• 1 1/2 cups almond milk
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Basil Cream:
• 1/4 cup raw cashews, presoaked in water for 12 hours
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/4 cup fresh basil
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh pepper

1. 1. To make the basil cream, drain the soaked cashews. In a blender or food processor, blend cashews with 1/4 cup water, basil and pepper until the mixture has the consistency of a thick cream, meaning it should slowly drip off a spoon.
2. 2. Boil the gnocchi until they float, then drain in a colander. Shock them with a quick spritz of cold water from your faucet.
3. 3. To prepare the sauce, mix the pureed pumpkin with the almond milk, nutmeg and salt. Simmer for 5 minutes, then add the gnocchi. Simmer for another minute.
4. 4. Assemble the dish by placing the gnocchi and sauce on the plates. Add dots or swirls of basil cream.
