Steps

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
Mix the ricotta, parmesan, egg, egg yolk, salt, and pepper, then stir in the flour until a soft dough forms.
Roll the dough into ropes on a floured surface and cut it into small pieces.
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then cook the onion, garlic, thyme, and mushrooms for 6 minutes.
Add the chardonnay, broth, and cream, then simmer the sauce for 5 minutes.
Boil the gnocchi for 2 to 4 minutes, until they float and reach 160 F, then drain and toss with the sauce and parmesan.
