INSTRUCTIONS

1 For the potato gnocchi, preheat oven to 350°F. Place potatoes directly on center rack of oven. Bake until very tender, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise; let stand until cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes. Carefully peel potatoes, discarding skins. Press potatoes through a potato ricer. Cool to room temperature.
2 Spread riced potatoes into even on clean work surface. Mix egg yolks, orange zest and lime zest in small bowl; drizzle evenly over potatoes. Sprinkle salt, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and 1/2 cup of the flour evenly over potatoes. Using clean hands, fold and knead potato mixture to blend. Gradually add remaining 1/2 cup flour, kneading just until blended.
3 Divide dough into 4 portions. Roll each portion into a 9-inch rope. Cut into 1-inch pieces and place on large baking sheet lined with parchment paper and dusted lightly with flour. Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add gnocchi; cook just until gnocchi float. Remove with slotted spoon and set aside.
4 For the Sour Pesto, place all ingredients in blender container; cover. Pulse until well blended; set aside.
5 For the Glaze, melt butter in large skillet on medium-high heat. Stir in calamansi juice. Add gnocchi; cook and stir until gnocchi are lightly browned. Add pesto and stir gently to coat. Serve immediately.
