Notes

Juicy Smoked Salmon Gnocchi is best served hot, straight from the skillet. Pair it with a simple green salad or some crusty bread for a complete meal. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm it gently in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of cream or water if needed to loosen the sauce.
