Drain, peel and mash them on a pastry board; mix them with flour and a pinch of salt. Work it just enough to obtain a homogeneous mixture. Shape small portions into loaves; cut them into dumplings about 2 cm long. Remove the thorns and the skin of the cod, cut it into small pieces and brown it with a knob of frothy butter and a few leaves of sage, for 4-5 minutes, then remove it from the pan. Add the cream, a pinch of grated nutmeg and 2 tablespoons of Parmesan to the bottom of the cooking, obtaining a sauce. Boil the gnocchi in boiling salted water, drain them with a slotted spoon and place them in a pan with the cod and a dash of cooking water. Stir and serve on the Parmesan sauce, completing with freshly ground pepper and a few sage leaves.
