Cook the gnocchetti pasta in a pot of generously salted boiling water. Cook until they are al dente, which normally takes about 5-7 minutes depending on the pasta's size. but it's always a good idea to taste a piece to confirm it's cooked perfectly. Move the cooked pasta to a pan having your preferred sauce, adding a generous splash of pasta water. To help, grate some fresh pecorino Romano or Parmigiano Reggiano cheese on top for extra flavor.
