I made something from the food lab just last night:
Make Fresh Ricotta Gnocchi in Less Time Than it Takes to Cook Dried Pasta | Serious Eats
Gnocchi are one of my favorite foods and these came out great. It was my first time, but after a bit of practice, I can definitely see he estimations about prep time being accurate. Bummer that my wife is allergic to eggs. She hates typical potato gnocchi and she said she would eat those. I'm looking into different types of emulsifiers.
If the rest of this guy's recipes are of similar quality, I would recommend.

Just made this tonight with some spicy Italian Sausage. Those Gnocchi are fantastic.

the egg derail in the Fast Food thread triggered me.
I swear to God I can't figure out why places that serve breakfast (IHOP, Perkins, etc) can't produce any eggs besides scrambled, over easy and fried hard (broken yoke). I don't like them runny and I don't like them cooked until they're crispy and brown. I'll even take over medium if they at least fucking try, but I'll order over well and I'll always get over easy or fried hard.
The worst was one older server at Perkins. It was like a fucking comedy routine.
Server: How would you like your eggs?
Me: Over Well
Server: so you mean, you want the yoke broken, right?
Me: No. That's over hard. I want over well. Yoke not broken, yoke not runny.
Server: Ok, sounds like over medium then
[Friends stifling laughter because this happens a few times a year, like clockwork]
[I waste several minutes actually trying to explain WTH over well is]
And of course they get served nearly raw.
I want to say that I used to be able to order over-well, but it's like in the last 5-10 years it's been almost impossible.
Sunny side up: The egg is fried with the yolk up and is not flipped.
Over easy: The egg is flipped and the yolk is still runny.
Over medium: The egg is flipped and the yolk is only slightly runny.
Over well: The egg is flipped and the yolk is cooked hard.
Over hard: cooked on both sides with the yolk broken, until set or hard

Dude, I've had the same frustration for years. If I say over hard, I fucking mean over hard. Do that. If your cooks can't figure that out, fire those fuckers now.

Man, you have got to be crazy to think this is a possibility at a Restaurant. You got line cooks cooking eggs on a griddle for 10 orders at a time and then you want someone babysitting your eggs for small window when they are just hard but not crispy plus you don't want them sitting under heat lamp and cooking that way. Never gonna happen, stop ordering eggs at IHOP if you can't handle runny eggs like a man.

What is sick is you watch people poach an egg in nothing but a pot of water. Crack it and cook it. I'm not that talented, I use an egg poacher. I eat poached eggs pretty often.
