  4. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon some flour onto large plate. Working in batches, drop heaping teaspoonfuls gnudi dough (size of small walnuts) onto plate with flour to form about 36 gnudi. Using floured hands, gently shape each into 1 1/2-inch-long, 1/2-inch-thick oval. Tap off excess flour; transfer gnudi to prepared baking sheet. do ahead Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.

  7. Test-kitchen tip: Tough gnudi? Try boiling the dumplings longer; the flour has to cook before they'll be tender.
