Tips while you cook

Stir constantly when adding liquids
When pouring the broth, soy sauce, concentrate, and vinegar, keep stirring to prevent lumps.
Toast baguette slices before adding cheese
Toast the baguette slices first, then top with grated cheese for a crisp, melty finish.
Wilt spinach just until it softens
Stir the gnocchi mixture only until the spinach leaves are wilted, avoiding overcooking.
Season the gnocchi mixture at the end
Add any additional seasoning after the gnocchi and vegetables are heated through.
