- 1/2 cup dry white wine

Method
- Line a large rimmed baking sheet with wax paper.
- In a large bowl, blend the ricotta with the flour, Parmesan, egg yolks, 3/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper.
- Spoon the gnocchi dough into a large, sturdy resealable plastic bag.
- Cut off a 1/2-inch corner from the bag.
- Pipe the dough onto the prepared baking sheet in five 1-foot-long strips about 3/4 inch wide.
- Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, about 3 hours.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan of boiling salted water, cook the corn until just tender, about 3 minutes.
- Drain and return the corn to the saucepan.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of the butter.
- In a very large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until shimmering.
- Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderately high heat until browned on the bottom, about 5 minutes.
- Stir and cook until browned and tender, about 4 minutes longer.
- Transfer to a plate.
- Add the wine to the skillet and boil over moderately high heat until reduced by half, about 3 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock and boil until reduced to 3/4 cup, 4 minutes.
- Add the corn and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 275.
- Let the gnocchi dough stand at room temperature for 5 minutes.
- Cut the strips into 1-inch lengths.
- Sprinkle with the cornstarch and toss gently to coat.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil.
- Add half of the gnocchi and cook over high heat until browned on the bottom, about 1 minute.
- Reduce the heat to moderately high.
- Using a spatula, turn the gnocchi and brown the other side, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Transfer to a baking sheet; keep warm in the oven.
- Repeat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and the gnocchi.
- Reheat the corn in the skillet.
- Add the mushrooms, tarragon and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the gnocchi to plates, spoon the mushroom ragout around them and serve.
