Add the sausage meat and cook for 5 to 7 minutes while stirring. Break the meat into small pieces. Drain the fat and reserve the meat in a bowl.
In the same saucepan, add the pumpkin purée, chicken broth, pecorino cheese and fresh thyme. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring, to thicken the sauce.
Add the gnocchi, the sausage and toss well.
Add the milk and nutmeg and cook for 1 minute while stirring. Serve immediately and garnish with pecorino cheese and fresh thyme!

An affordable "super Tuscan"! Super Tuscans are wines made from typically Italian grapes blended with international varieties. Sangiovese, cabernet, merlot. See the product

MR. BROWN, AVANT-GARDE, 4.5%

The pumpkin is sweet, the sausage is herbal, and the pan-fried gnocchi get a nice crust. A dry brown ale, with hazelnut and roasted nut, sits on that crust and balances the fat of the cheese. It lets the sweet squash speak instead of covering it. See the product
