In addition to Trentino, only Carnia and the Julian area keep alive the tradition of bread gnocchi, of direct Austrian and Central European descent. The dish was undoubtedly born from a creative reuse of stale bread. A plate of bread gnocchi with sauce not only ennobles "the leftovers" but is also a real joy of the table.
