Wilt the spinach in hot water, squeeze it dry between both hands, and chop finely.
Mix the ricotta, spinach, Parmesan, egg yolks, flour, salt, and nutmeg.
Rest the mixture in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
Take large walnut-size pieces of the mixture and coat them in semolina.
Boil the gnudi in salted water for 3 to 4 minutes, until they rise to the surface.
Foam the butter with the sage for 2 minutes.
Gently turn the drained gnudi in the sage butter and serve.
💡 Tip: Draining the ricotta in a sieve for at least 4 hours keeps the gnudi from falling apart in the boiling water.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with sage butter, Parmesan, and a lemony green salad.
