Brown Butter (an absolute favorite for gnocchi)

4 T salted butter
2 T bread crumbs
1 sage leaf optional

Place the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the sage leaf if using. Cook until the butter starts to foam. Watch it very closely. The foam will begin to turn nut brown. Now add the bread crumbs and remove from the heat. Toss with the gnocchi immediately to coat.
