Cooking instruction summary:

Heat large stove top pan over medium heat.

Brown sausage in heated pan, breaking up with a spoon. After about 8 minutes and sausage is almost browned, add asparagus and onion (the sausage should have created sufficient grease, but if it didn't add a little olive oil). Season with salt and pepper cook for about 5-7 more minutes, until onions are transluscent and asparagus starts to become tender.

Push sausage, asparagus and onion to one side of the pan. Add gnocchi to other half and cooking for about 5 minutes until it starts to brown, stirring regularly. Add the shrimp and chicken broth and stir everything together. Stir often and cook until shrimp is pink, about 4 minutes.

Reduce heat to medium low, add crushed red pepper, parmesan and mascarpone and stir until cheese melts and everything is coated evenly. Make sure to taste it and see if any additional salt, pepper or crushed red pepper is needed.

Serve and season with additional crushed red pepper if desired.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
