'GIOVEDÌ GNOCCHI' • thursday gnocchi
Tomorrow it's Thursday, giovedì in Italian. In Italy when someone asks you what you are going to do this Thursday, you can say giovedì? Gnocchi!
But why gnocchi on thursday? This saying goes back to the post-war period and marries the Catholic tradition that involves the fasting of meat on Friday.
That's why gnocchi, which are a nutritious and full-bodied dish, were prepared and sold for Thursday, because it was the day before this fast. Any excuse for eating gnocchi.
