I want to make gnocchi for my sister tonight, but am in the mood for cooking now, but I know you should serve it pretty much straight away after you cook it so... how long before I want to cook it can I make it? Should I make, then cook straight away? Or can I make them and then have them in the fridge for a few hours before I cook? I know you can freeze it, but I want to cook them tonight, but make them now... will they be ok in the fridge?

BTW, I've never made gnocchi. How exciting? lol
